Abstract
An ice axe device has an adjustable grip. The ice axe includes an elongated shaft with opposite proximal and distal ends. A pick is disposed at the distal end of the elongated shaft, and a grip is disposed at the proximal end of the elongated shaft. A pommel is adjustably securable to the grip,. A spike can be disposed on the proximal end of the grip. At least one spacer can be selectively disposable on the grip to selectively shorten and lengthen the length of the grip.
