The Cortex is a premium tool well suited to the most out-there mixed, ice, and dry tooling routes.
The exoskeleton I-Beam profile is CNC'd from a single aluminium billet, achieving an optimal strength-to-weight ratio and delivering a perfectly balanced swing. This fully 'Type 2' (T) tool utilises a modular pick system. Choose from an Ice Pick, Ice Tech Pick, or a burly Dry tooling pick depending on the task ahead.
One piece design
CNC milled from a single aluminium billet creating a very strong, lightweight, and superbly balanced Ice tool.
I-Beam design
Mirroring the technology used on our premium I Beam carabiners we have removed unnecessary metal creating the striking exoskeleton I Beam profile, distributing the weight carefully. The result is a perfectly balanced swing.
Ergonomic moulded handles
Upper and lower handles have a textured polymer over moulding helping with insulation and grip. The handle has a clip-in hole for Shadow, Phantom or Phantom HMS screw gates, and an attachment point accommodates cord up to 5mm for clipping leashes.
Modular pick system
The Type 2 T rated picks are modular and customizable to your needs. The Cortex comes with
the Ice Tech pick, Micro Hammer, and pick weights. DMM offers three interchangeable picks, two hammers and one adze that are compatible with the Cortex, Apex and Vertex.
