Spoke to SOG today about this, yes the Powergrab did not do well last year and it got canned.
I also just found out Reactor is not reacting anymore.

Thanks Kampfer! Sad news, but was expected. The reactor and Grab were not well received. :ahhh

If you remember, I gave up on the Reactor after only 5 minutes, it is hopeless.

The Reactor was very disappointing. It was a great concept, but it was executed badly from the design stage onwards. It was full of hotspots, was uncomfortable to use, and too thick for what it was. They've had a lot of missteps the last few years, and I wonder if their reputation can be repaired.

I appreciate that SOG seems to be moving towards their roots again, being a bit more experimental & adventurous with their designs. The PowerAccess was a step in the right direction, and the Q line is definitely different. Their new small tools are clearly a grab at the Juice segment that Leatherman has left stagnant for a very long time. I desperately hope that SOG gets their QC issues in line with these new tools, because they could really stand to grab some serious market share.
