I have a "naked" axe. Other than a leash, what are some accessories I should have on my axe? I won't be doing any technical ice climbing with it.
Thanks.

I don't like a leash on a basic mountaineering ax either, for some reason. Mine is naked, except for the few times I've tried to duct tape the head/shaft so's to be easier on my hands/gloves during longer slogs on steep snow.. But the two types of tape I've tried thus far have lost adhesion and fallen off before the climb was done, and having a pocket full of duct tape scraps is lame, since I refuse to litter on the 'tain.
