T TOWN WHAT!!
i own the black diamond ice pack which has the tool tubes. i love em. they make packing and takeing your tool out easy and effort less. two answer the q's about the disadvantages 1.) it would pretty hard to brake the buckles ...they are low profile and burley. 2.)the leash isnt a problem you hook it to the top of your tool and its out of the way. or you can rap it around the head of your tool befor you put it in. 3.)its not a notable weight. but hey it all adds up i guess.
also the crampon pouch on the outside in great too...saves room in your pack.
