  • Multifunctional shovel attachment for an ice axe
    Patent number: 6378153
    Abstract: A shovel blade attachment for a climber's ice axe has a centered slot that can accommodate the head of the ice axe so as to produce a trenching tool. A receiving pocket on the upper surface of the blade attachment secures the head of the ice axe, and a threaded bolt penetrates the pocket to lock the head in place. In an alternative manner of use, the spike extremity of the ice axe may instead engage the blade by way of the receiving pocket and bolt to produce a shovel tool.
