              Comments about Climb High Axe Head Guard:

              The pick guard doesn't cover my entire ice axe pick and teeth (Black Diamont Raven). Seems like the hole needs to be bigger. The connecting strip breaks easily when it dries out in the sun. The adze guard works great though!

                    Saw the bad reviews, but for [$], this thing is great. It fits my Black Diamond Raven fine, a little sloppy on the one end, but it stays on and does what it's supposed to do. Have only really used it on two day trips so far, but I can't say it's disappointed me .......yet, anyway.

                    Comments about Climb High Axe Head Guard:

                    Worked great for one season, just recently moved from OR to MT and I noticed that the rubber was already cracking, after only one season. I guess for the cost it will work if all you need it is for one season.

                        Rubber got old and started to crack after just one trip (4 months old).
