The DMM Apex is an aggressively curved technical ice axe designed for mixed climbing and hard icefalls. The proven apex design has seen some refinements, with an improved swing thanks to less weight in the handle and tube and refined shaft geometry.

Versatile and comfortable across a wide variety of terrain, the DMM Apex might look aggressive but the shaft curve has been precisely designed to give clearance and stability on steep ground while remaining effective when plunging, daggering and moving on easier angled snow slopes. With a lightweight aluminium shaft, the Apex ice axe is fully T rated and the dual rivet and glue construction allows the axe to fully handle the burly nature of winter climbing. The hot forged handle also strikes a balance between performance and versatility whilst the upper and lower hand rests allow hand matching, crucial to the Apex’s performance on steeper ground.

The Type 2 T rated picks are modular and customisable to your needs. The Apex comes with the Ice Pick and either a Compact Hammer or Adze.

Features

New and improved: The new Apex boasts excellent balance for ice climbing – improvements owed to less weight in the handle and tube, making it more top heavy. Pick weights are included, allowing the user to further tune the axe’s swing. The refined shaft geometry also gives greater clearance and stability on steep terrain.
Durable and strong shaft: The shaft tube may be lighter, but durability and robust construction are still a priority for the Apex. Our tried and tested dual rivet and glue construction method is used on both the head and handle.
Improved lower rest and spike: Lighter one piece handle, lower rest and spike improves balance and swing. Additional spikes in lower trigger improve stability. Large clip in hole for Phantom, Phantom HMS and Shadow carabiners.
Modular pick system: The Type 2 T rated picks are modular and customisable to your needs. The Apex comes with the Ice Pick with either Compact Hammer or Adze. DMM offers three interchangeable picks, two hammers and one adze that are compatible with the Cortex, Apex and Vertex.
