The New HotForge straight gate carabiner is a redesign of the classic KeyLock carabiner with its smooth opening at the rope end of the quickdraw is super easy to use and has a huge rope-bearing surface for durability of both carabiner and rope. There is a deeper profile for easier clipping and a flatter surface at the hinge end for keeping your webbing where it should be. Overall great improvements.
