I love these on my quick draws for the rope clipping, the bent gate has a compound feel to it. force it open about 1/3 and it releases easily. The over all feel of the gate is somewhat stiff but the shape is awsome for i have smaller fingers so i can get them from my harness fast. And clip the rope easy.

All of my quick draw bottoms are made with this biner. BD has been great over the years because as I've needed more of them they have been easy to find in the same color of the ones I purchased years ago. (I like a nice tidy color coded rack). Price is steeper than other makes but I like to keep my $$ local (Utah).
