"Very Versatile" 05/09/13

Love having a few extra of these biners on my harness. They are very versatile, solid, and always end up using them.

"These carabiners do carabiner things." 04/09/13

Odered four of them for setting up top ropes on anchors and trees. The worked great. A little heavy if you're using them on a rack but the weight is worth the reasonable price.

"Good Carabiner, Good price" 07/27/12

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 throw at it. I am currently using four of them for a primitive slackline pulley-rig system. They work great at keeping the webbing tight and I have not seen any signs of deformity or damage yet, despite the constant strain. Even though they are not designed for tri-loading, they still hold great on the slings.I also really like the gate on this carabiner. It feels very secure and closes quite snappy(the wiregate Black Diamond Ovals felt like crap). And while it looks a bit boring, you really cant beat the price.

There aren't any surprises with these carabiners, they do exactly what you expect them to do and no less, good value if you don't need any crazy features.

"Great product. Worked as advertised!" 10/18/11

I used these carabiners for general glacier travel, crevasse rescue training, and a bit of ice climbing on Mt. Rainier in june, and they performed as advertised, which is what you expect from climbing gear. I had no problems with them locking up due to ice.Would definitely recommend.

"Classic Oval" 09/08/11

No surprises, no frills, classic oval carabiner. Exactly as advertised and just what I wanted. Moosejaw, on another note, the spell check for this review does not recognize the word carabiner or Moosejaw.
