The oval is one of the first shapes that carabiners came in, and it's still the best option when you're racking a lot of gear for alpine, traditional, and multi-pitch climbs. This Oval Keylock Carabiner is Black Diamond's only oval carabiner to come with a snag-free keylock nose. It's kind of like an "old meets new" thing.

Love these Keylock Ovals
Love the snag-free design. I use these dedicated to each of my aid ladders and ascenders (upper hole for locking rope)

Holds My Nuts
The oval shape is best for storing nuts. The wires just sit better than a normal carabiner. With the shape, sometimes it's a little hard to tell which side opens. I put colorful tape on the not-gate side to easily tell.

No snags
Keylock nose carabiner for racking a set of nuts. What’s not to love? Nuts are now easily accessible and don’t get snagged on the nose when unclipping.

Size matters!
Old Standards, hollow Salewas, several iterations of generic oval biners and most recently, the BD wiregate ovals aren't as roomy or as less likely to snag on webbing, pitons or wires as the keylock. Full size biners rule.

Solid Carabiner
Using it for the Nuts, I like it a lot. The only problem with this use is that you can't easily figure out what side is opening.

Greatly satisfy
Perfect for holding stuff on your rig as like as water bottler / small ropes and others. There's no "hook" close to the gate so, its easier and faster to take-off your stuff. It wont stuck with it. I dont like to mess with that cause it happened every time with mostly all kinds of biners. That one is strong and pratical. I use it only to carry gear for example on my belt.
