Description of Petzl Quark Ice Axe:
The Petzl Charlet Moser Quark is a technical ice tool designed to excel on difficult ice or mixed routes. Built with minimal mass at the handle and the majority at the head of the axe, this tool swings with ease, even with a straight arm. The curved shaft clears bulges and mantles. The trapezoidal shaped hammer is ideal for jamming in cracks. The forged CASCADE pick narrows at the tip for efficient placement. The beveled teeth are distributed to maximize stability while hooking and effortlessness removal from the most solid placement. The pick is interchangeable and the axe is delivered with the CLIPPER leash. Available with an adze or hammer: The wide adze of the Quark P clears snow and ice from your route, while the trapezoidal shaped hammer of the Quark M is ideal for jamming in cracks.
Bottom Line: A swinging machine. Match it up with the Quark P w/ adze for a versatile set of tools.

Wow. I have not updated my old tools yet. A friend of mine let me have a go today with these. It’s a huge difference. They worked well over bulges or vertical. He claims everybody is using them in the Canadian Rockies. I would not know about that, but I was impressed today. I’m shopping for them now.

This tool is one of the best, very good swing with great penetrating power with very little ice disruption. The tool for vertical ice. Performs well on mixed terrain, and with the grip-rest off is good for difficult alpine

I have had a pair of quarks for three years and they have been great on everything from vertical water ice to more mellow alpine ice. With the triggers they are a solid leashless tool and the ease of installation of the clipper allows them to work pretty well leashed. My only beef with the leash is that if you have it adjusted to give support when climbing you can't reach the head to transition to piolet cane.
