The best keylock style biner made
Simond Spider Carabiner
February 20, 2008
Simond's Spider biner, both bent and straight gate, is the best keylock type biner on the market. I've used Petzl Spirits and other (e.g. Kong) keylock biners, and the Spider beats them. Well-made, best design, great shape, I have slowly been converting all my draws to Spiders. This biner frightened Petzl so much, they sued Simond (for patent infringement) to keep it off the market. Petzl's tactic kept the Spider off of shelves for a few years, but Petzl lost their suit, and climbers can finally get this great biner again. If you want to enjoy smooth clipping and uncliping, get some Spiders.
