From Backcountry.com:
"Black Diamond brings incredible leashless performance to pure ice routes with the Reactor Ice Tool. Its curved upper shaft clears ice bulges and cauliflowers with ease while the Black Diamond Laser pick provides excellent penetration in bullet-hard blue. The Reactor Ice Tool's TPU-coated, staggered bottom grip allows easy matching on both ice and mixed routes with minimal pick shift, and the mini-hammer is just big enough for pounding the occasional pin in a gear-protected line."

From REI:
"The fusion of a precision steel pick and hammer and lithe curved aluminum shaft make the Black Diamond® Reactor a reliable ally on rock and ice. Leashless ice tool design with sticky thermoplastic urethane grip offers high performance on medium to steep waterfall ice and alpine terrain. Grip geometry keeps the hand-to-pick angle constant, which minimizes pick shifting during traverses, depumping, or when matching tools. Optimal clearance shape allows for solid placements. Aluminum reinforced pommels feature teeth for extra holding power to fight fatigue and protect hand from bashing and bruising. Leash and clip-in holes at head and pommel to prevent loss of tool en route. Chromoly steel Laser pick has a thinner nose and body to penetrate more easily and displace less ice for secure placements. Stainless steel head and 7075-series aluminum shaft combine for lightweight but durable power on ice and mixed routes. Curved shaft adds graceful reach for hooking cauliflower ice, precise striking on steep columns and nailing scratchy slopers on your project. An ideal companion for mixed climbing, waterfall ice and drytool classics."

From RockCreek:
"The Black Diamond Reactor Ice Tool is a leashless tool designed for ice. The new Reactor delivers precise placements on any angle of ice as well as solid drytool performance with its high clearance shaft and natural swing. Built with dual-density TPU, the generous, offset dual-pommel grip accommodates larger hands or thick gloves and makes hand matches easy. A weight-saving micro hammer, combined with an aluminum shaft, makes this Black Diamond's lightest technical ice tool."
