Ortovox Kodiak Excavator

Robust mountaineering shovel with unique clearance function and handle in practice


A robust mountaineering shovel with a unique clearance feature and a handful handle! Our Kodiak excavator has the largest volume of pelletage (3.1 liters) of our range of products, so it can be considered as the fastest of the lot. The blade is also extremely rigid (Al 6061 T6 is the perfect material for shovels), and yet this tool is easy to pack and slips easily into any ortovox backpack. Its cutting edge is sharpened and its upper edge is equipped with non-slip streaks. The handle is oval (for greater rigidity) and has a telescopic and non-slip rubber surface. The D-handle is considered the most ergonomic and facilitates the powerful shovel of the snow. It has been made more compact than its predecessor, without compromising on the length. Another novelty: the flat shovel blade, which is now ideal for professional snow removal. The first snow removal function is really unique. The friction bond between the handle and the blade is virtually indestructible, which saves crucial seconds when used to save the life of your companion. The editors of the Bergteiger magazine also recognized the perfection of the Kodiak and honored the shovel of their "Best Shovel" price!
