Need a pair of ice tools for beginner and not willing to spend tons of money on the pair. Intended use is the alpine ice w/o going higher grades at this point.

I don't see why non-modular picks are a problem unless you're doing something that risks snapping the pick (like inserting the pick in a narrow horizontal crack in rock and cranking hard on the end of the shaft). If the pick gets dull, sharpen it.

Pre-cursor tools to the Charlet Moser Pulsar ice tools. Charlet Moser is a french gear company and was later bought out by the french company Petzl. Those tools are pretty solid gear and you won't find many of that model floating around anymore. Sharpen picks with file if needed. The owner of that set is a hardcore sierra b.c teleskier who used to climb.
