Trango's Captain Hook is one mean tool.
The investment-cast stainless steel head will accept a WaffleHammer
™ or a the Fighting Adze™ and the picks are ready-to-go when you get
the tool. The droop is right for swinging and hooking, the teeth have
the right side-bevel for easy removal, and the profile of the last
tooth has that nasty little hook on it that won’t blow when you’re
cranking off a tiny little drool of ice. Trano uses a proprietary process to vulcanize the sticky rubber grip to the lower shafts so they’ll never come loose. Plus, you can customize the fit with a sharp knife without destroying the grip. The “Hook” is supplied with either a Hammer or Adze and the appropriate pick. Although available in three shaft styles, we only carry the Clearance Shaft: The bend is at the top for clearing bulges and hooking icicles. Great for big ice. Rounded platform grip for control and support. · Weight: 759 gm (26.75 oz) · Length: 50cm · Materials: Shaft - 7075 T6 Aluminum · Pick - Chrome Vanadium Spring Steel, Tempered to hardness of HRC 46 · Head - Investment Cast 17-4 PH Stainless Steel · Hammer - Investment Cast High Carbon Steel.
