The HotForge racks up without weighing you down, thanks to its hot-forged carabiner construction which eliminates excess material. Dual keylocks mitigate snagging, and the contrasting-colored, bent gate on the lower biner offers both a visual target and a flutter-free clip. The wider, polyester dogbone is comfortable and stable in your hand, and speaking of stability—a Straitjacket insert maintains the carabiner orientation to make clipping easy.
