I received some of these kids as gifts almost 2 years ago and they work great. I use them on my pack for hiking, camping, and everyday use for affixing my nalgene to my work…

I was given a couple of these awhile back and used one of them for a keychain and another for clipping assorted items to my climbing pack. Usually I get a "nice biner" at the…

These carabiners are a big upgrade from BD Neutrino carabiners in terns of light weight (from 37g to 28 gram) and sang-free design. However, they are also more expensive. I lo…

Want cheap, light, color coded racking biners then get some of these. Not too heavy, not too small, and are wiregate. Can't get better at this price point. Now if you want a s…

I dont really use it for the hardcore climbing (yet). I know i will when i get going, but for now i use it for my ENO Hammock instead of the heavy steel ones they give you.…

Black Diamond Neutrinos allow me to select the camelot that I need quickly and with minimal effort. In addition the blue one matches my eyes. Mike Frankus…

I have these solely for the purpose of keeping my rack organized. It's nice to have a red neutrino to go with my Red BD C4 camalot, and the blue neutrino with my blue camalot.…

These carabiners are okay for racking, but just okay. They're really small compared to other wiregate carabiners. Because they're so small, I find them hard to clip and manipu…

Pros: Light weight, color coded. Cons: Nose hook tends to snag. To small for most applications. All-in-all good beiners for multi purpose.…

It's your standard carabiner, great for securing lines and clipping gear onto a bag quickly. It is pretty lightweight, but is also plenty strong enough for anything you could…
- Casey, 07/27/12

I use these for slacklining on short to moderately long lines. Great for 1" webbing because it's wide enough to keep your line flat from anchor to anchor (I pair them with rap…

I'm buying this to replace on one of my spirit quickdraws that fell but I'm also planning on using it on a daisy as a quick lock. I love the fact that there is no "hole" on th…

Favorite biner hands down. Still large enough not to be fiddly, LIGHT, snagless nose, not stupid expensive, and you can get them color coded. WINNING The only other racking…

A specialized tool. I use a pair of these to connect my technical ice tools to my leash. When girth-hitched to my harness, this gives me a full-strength temporary personal anc…

Better than losing a quickdraw when you can't make it to the top of a bolted route at Hedo. . .I suck BTW.…

Large, light (for an oval), and cheap = great racking biner for nuts. I like that it's not a snagless nose as that's saved a nut or two from being lost to a long fall.…

since I am a beginner of climbing, I asked some of my friends about carabiner, and most of them suggest this one to me. its a little bit expensive than BD's traditional biner…
- Ran, 03/08/13

I bought a bunch of these and I like most of them, but a few seem to have the wire gate that is a bit off line because it scrapes on the nose a bit. I would say at least 9/10…
