The DMM Vertex ice axe breaks into new ground upon entering the outdoor scene by being the lightest and most compact certified ice axe with a full steel pick on the market.
With more uses than perhaps you would initially expect, the Flux is best suited for activities such as winter fell running, approaches for summer alpine rock routes, ski mountaineering and touring.
With a high strength tempered steel pick and hammer for placing pegs and a lightweight aluminium spike, this little axe is small but mighty with the durability you have come to expect from DMM.

As a lifelong mountaineer, my favourite activities are scrambling, including “scrambles in the Alps”. As a materials scientist, I appreciate the marriage of materials, form and function, especially towards ultralight designs. The Flux rightly priortizes a functional steel pick.
For years I have modified various ice-axes - towards shorter lengths - and carried one in my pack. In UK scrambles, turf ledges are regularly encountered between rocky pitches and a brief axe placement can aid security. In winter conditions, a standard axe is normally sufficient, but this short Flux provides a 4th point of contact with an icy slope, while adding minimal mass.
