Regarded as one of the best ice and mixed climbing tools ever, the Nomic is the do it all tool. With a slightly added curve from the Quark, the Nomic swings naturally while keeping your hands safe from ice bang. Off-set, ergonomic grip paired with adjustable grip rest for all sized hands and gloves allows you to match with minimal shift while dry tooling. Thermally insulated Griptape on the upper handle provides an excellent secondary grip.
Removable weights in the modular head puts the weight of the tool more forward for easier driving into ice but can be taken out for dry tooling. The modular ice pick penetrates into any ice and pulls out easily to get to your next crux move fast. A serrated blade under the Griprest allows for better hold coming out of steep sections in hard ice or snow. The Nomic can also be equipped with a hammer for pounding pins.
