From Backcountry.com:
"The Raven Pro Ice Axe is the lightest, full-service piolet available, period. It has a super clean and simple design for the high-end user who refuses to sacrifice performance for less weight. The sleek and ergonomic head provides a sure grip and all day comfort this also makes for a fast, smooth hand rotation when going into self-arrest. Boot-axe belays are a snap too. The classically curved adze blasts ice, chops steps, and clears snow quickly and easily. Not just for the climber, the Raven Pro is a ski/snowboard-mountaineer's dream as well. At 11 ounces, you may think you forgot to bring it with you. Durable 7075-T6 Aluminum shaft, 17-4 investment cast stainless steel head and spike."

From Altrec Outdoors:
"Created for weight-conscious mountaineers, the full-function Raven Pro is a lighter version of Black Diamond's Raven. Built with an aluminum shaft and a more compact investment-cast stainless steel head and spike, it provides all-around performance."

From REI:
"Black Diamond® Raven Pro ice axe offers all the comfort and safety of the original, but weighs 100 grams less! Raven Pro's pierced and drawn 7075-T6 aluminum shaft cuts weight without sacrificing strength. Unique head design tapers back to a wide platform with finger notches on each side for comfort and a secure grip. Curved adze allows a natural swinging arc; great for chopping steps and clearing snow and ice. Investment cast spike is great for glissading; features a narrow profile for speed control and a wide side profile for stopping power."
