Very nice! 👍 Matte color feels great and biner is solid. I use it for my key ring, so I can't comment on how it is for climbing, but I love the bent gate and it has a better feel than my last (lost) one (Mad Rock Super Tech Bent Carabiner (Orange)" Sports; $7.95) - I did have my Mad Rock for 13 years so it served me well - left it in the rental car attached to the rental key 🤦 Mad Rock only makes the bent gate in Orange; the black on this Black Diamond is striking.
So many reasons to buy this biner and really no reasons not to. Surprisingly lighter than it looks. Love the gate angle when clipping. Dogbones sits perfectly at the elbow. And this might just be me, but I'm lowkey in love with the matte texture.
I really like the bent gate. I find it easier and more comfortable to clip this.
Use it to hold my chalk bag when climbing. Does the job and has held up great.
A great biner- feels good in your hand, and I love the slightly bend gate.
Awesome key gate carabiner. Solid, relatively light, and snag free.
Nice size, good looking, function well. Bought for alpine draws.
Good product but still don't have the chance to use it !
Bent gate carabiner has a great feel when clipping
