Black Diamond

HotForge Carabiner

Solid piece of gear

Awesome key gate carabiner. Solid, relatively light, and snag free.

HotForge draws

I bought the black straight gate's and bent gate's, combined with the 16cm Logo daws. They are good. Just like my old Petzl Spirit or the Edelrid. The only con, is that the hanger end of the draw has a very big opening. So far not an issue on climbing.

Great carabiner

I really like the bent gate. I find it easier and more comfortable to clip this.

Quality as always

Bent gate carabiner has a great feel when clipping

Nice biner

Solid feeling carabiner, nothing fancy. A little on the large side.

Beautiful carabiners

These are my favorite carabiners to build draws with. So clean looking and the gate action is the best.

Bent gate

Nice size, good looking, function well. Bought for alpine draws.

Straight gate

Nice size, good looking, function well. Bought for alpine draws.

Use it to hold my chalk bag when climbing. Does the job and has held up great.

The lightweight beefy biner

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.
