Here's what other sites are saying:

From Backcountry.com:
"The Black Diamond Raven Ice Axe is designed to give you the greatest comfort and ease of use possible. The ergonomic, stainless steel head has a flat top and hourglass shape at its connection to the shaft. This creates a shape that's comfortable to hang onto and allows fast transition to self-arrest. The Raven's pick shape is very secure in self-arrest and the large adze makes the dismal job of chopping a belay ledge a little more bearableYou're going to be walking for days with your ice axe. The Raven's comfortable head will make all the difference."

From Oregon Mountain Community:
"The Black Diamond Raven Ice Axe : This classic piolet optimizes comfort and ease of use when glacier travel and mountaineering. Investment-cast one-piece stainless steel heads are comfortable to wrap your fingers around and the Grip version offers a dual-density, molded grip for when the going gets steep or when it’s time to chop. The curve of the pick and its aggressive teeth are engineered for secure self-arrest. Which Ice Axe is right for you?"
