What are tree climbing irons?

Tree climbing irons are an auxiliary tool for climbing trees, usually to prune them using the silk climbing technique. The climbing irons function in a similar way to spikes and are placed under the climber's shoe with the help of a bracket. With their help, the climber can find a hold on the tree by kicking the trunk with the spikes.

Often tree climbing irons are also mistakenly called crampons. These are very similar to tree climbing irons in function and appearance, but are designed for mountaineering.
