Viper Hammer Ice Tool

The ultimate all-around ice tool, from steep snow to ice Black Diamond’s Viper Hammer was redesigned from scratch to be the ultimate all-around ice tool. From steep snow climbs to technical ice, the Viper is easy to swing and has an open pick angle for solid sticks. A hydroformed shaft extends through the grip for enhanced rigidity. The adjustable FlickLock® upper pommel functions as a secondary grip position on low-angle terrain and easily slides up the shaft for choking up on low-angle snow slopes. The modular head allows for easy changing of picks and swapping between hammer and adze. A Titan Pick is included to beef up durability on scrappy mountain terrain.
