From Moosejaw:
"Free Shipping. Grivel Air Tech Racing Ice Axe (Spring 2008) The redesigned Air Tech Racing by Grivel is the lightest forged steel ice axe in the world. The robust T-rated head is the same as used on Air Tech and Air Tech Evo but mated to a lighter, B-rated shaft. It is our experience that the mountains often put up more resistance than anticipated; the Air Tech Racing is for the climber that wants the lightest possible tool without sacrificing the strength and performance necessary to address unexpected challenges. The light alloy shaft features a gentle curve and is now is finished with a sharp, ChroMoly steel spike. Specs & Tech: Blade: classic, positive Materials: ChroMoly steel Construction: hot-forged head CE - Shaft Resistance: 270 kg B"

From Backcountry.com:
"The Grivel Air Tech Racing Ice Axe is ideal for mountaineers searching for the lightest possible tool without sacrificing the strength and durability of a genuine, hot-forged steel head. The Air Tech Racing Ice Axe weighs only 14.1oz and is still durable enough to take the abuse that alpine climbing and mountaineering dishes out. Its hot-forges pick and adze take a beating that would reduce most lightweight ice axes to scrap metal. Updated with a slightly curved shaft, the Air Tech Racing Ice Axe is now easier to use for self arrest and clears ice bulges better."
