Niche biner that has its place

By Evan Stevens Ranked #25 - Carabiners, Quickdraws, and Belay Devices June 17, 2010

These little things are perfect for SPECIFIC climbing applications I have found. Examples include - biners for bolts on an anchor set up, nut tool, pack biner, shoe biner, crevasse rescue kit for ski mountaineering, extra biners for alpine climbing. I would not recommend it as your workhorse clipping biner, but you can get by using them if you have to. Try not to set them up on the rope end of things, but on gear or bolt sides, and you won't have any trouble (and I have HUGE meaty hands). Enjoy the lightness and size reduction of your kit with these biners!
