What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:“I’ve carried this nut tool on everything from roadside cragging to longer trad routes, and it does exactly what I want without fuss. The thin tip gets into tight placements, and the flat end saves your palm when you really have to push. The leash is handy when you’re working above gear and don’t want to watch your tool disappear.”Who It’s ForTrad and alpine climbers cleaning their own gear:This tool is for climbers placing nuts and tricams who want a reliable way to clean stuck protection. Ideal for trad climbers at any experience level, especially if you’re leading and cleaning your own placements. What It’s ForRemoving nuts and passive protection on rock routes:Designed for cleaning wired nuts from cracks and constrictions, whether you’re at a single-pitch crag or higher off the deck on multipitch routes. The leash adds security when cleaning above ledges or belays. Why We Like ItSlim profile, solid leverage, drop-proof security:The precision-ground tip fits into small slots, while the wide, flat end gives you a comfortable surface to push against when a piece won’t budge. Large cutouts keep weight down, and the built-in clip and leash help keep the tool where it belongs.
