Summary: | classic HMS with offset gate in twist lock |
Description & Commentary: | A classic HMS shaped carabiner. As with many Omega Pacific carabiners, the gate spring of this example is weak. In my experience on ropes courses I've seen the Jake carabiner gate springs wear out at a rate much faster than Black Diamond or Petzl carabiners - often self-ejecting at some point. See the related REI HMS Screwgate. |
