# Description
When a wall doesn’t offer handholds and footholds, you can make your own. A [[Piton]] is a steel spike with an eye through which you can loop a [[Hempen Rope|Rope]]. Pitons are typically bought in multiples of 10.
Homebrew ruling: These Pitons deform when being hammered in and are not suitable for reuse. A [[Climber's Kit]] contains reusable pitons.
