Black Diamond designed the Transfer 7 Shovel with a trapezoidal shaft to increase strength and ensure fast, easy use in any condition. By moving away from the traditional round shaft, Black Diamond created a handle that extends with a simple pull and cannot be rotated on accident. This makes the Transfer 7 faster to set up than standard shovels, and the large blade moves snow like a tractor when your partner's life depends on it.


Features:

• Unique patent-pending trapezoidal bent shaft offers maximum extension through a two-piece design that enhances both reach and strength


• Shaft deploys quickly via a quick squeeze of spring pins; shaft shape prevents rotation, so the spring pins engage every time


• Ergonomic T-grip handle feels like a D-grip but packs small and is glove- and mitten-friendly


• Large anodized 6000-series aluminum blade is smooth and flat, carving quickly through snow during recovery; cuts clean during pit analysis


• Pointed blade enables effective chopping, and flat sides smooth pit walls; anchor holes through blade accommodate use as a dead man anchor


• Blade Size:39 x 25cm / 15.25 x 10 in.
