ICI Knifeblade Piton Set (2)

The Knifeblade piton uses a tapered silhouette and pointed tip to fit in the smallest of cracks. Corrosion has covered most of the logo, but it can still be faintly seen above the rope thread.

ICI, a Japanese mountaineering equipment manufacturer produced these Knifeblade style pitons between the 1970s and 1980s.

Note: All vintage mountaineering gear is sold for decorative use only and should not be used or treated as safety equipment.
