Just curious what all of you women (or men) out there prefer to use for ice tools? I've been using Quarks, which work great for waterfall ice, but I need a second pair for alpine. The Quarks have 88mm grips, which fits my hand fine. I've been using Cobras for alpine but they're grip is just a bit too large (99mm). Anyone have any ideas of a decent ice tool w/ a smaller grip? Any info on the HB Black Lightning or the Grivel Top Machine? Info appreciated. [ This Message was edited by: alpineice on 2002-09-10 10:27 ]

Try the Grivel Rambo (the old style in silver shaft) or the Simond Piranha both are in small shaft (I own them both and love them both) also take a look at the new Alf-wing from Grivel Personally I use my Rambo or the BD Rage for alpine (and yes I do have a smaller grip too) hope it helped
