Product Description
Black Diamond's Quicksilver Screwgate is updated with a locking gate and screwgate sleeve, and now shares the same body as the Quicksilver2, with its wide rope-bearing width of 9.5mm and an angled nose for easy clipping. The relatively light weight of the Quicksilver Screwgate (56 g) makes it great for big wall and alpine anchors, while a deep basket allows climbers to pile in the runners and slings. Black Diamond created this biner for climbers who place a premium on weight, yet demand workhorse durability and high strength out of their lockers. Vendor *Comes in assorted colors.

Just to clarify, I did not buy this carabiner for climbing. I backpack a lot and keep one attached to my bags for a number of reasons-
a) For bear proofing my campsite. I use a rope and pully system where I lock my pack onto the rope with this carabiner.
b) I use rope when hanging clothes out to dry. Tie a rope around two trees and secure with this carabiner and you have a clothes line.
c) For pretending like I've climbed and having it attached to my pack makes me look tougher.
Ok, I'm just kidding about the third - but to anyone, carabiners are used a number of ways and, although this one is a bit pricey- it has lasted a long time AND it is very light weight, so I really don't mind carrying it at all. I don't think you'd mind either... unless I asked you to carry one around for no particular reason, then you might mind- because you'd look pretty silly at work holding onto a carabiner for no particular reason... plus, it would be hard to type.
I hope this review helps you out. I would recommend it to anyone who does not mind dropping a few extra bucks.

AH, i so miss Utah, CO, and Alaksa... now my climbing days are on my roof and anchor systems for roof repairs and such. But a whole new thrill when your brother with no climbing experience and a 5 minute instruction on safety promptly removes his belay rope hand!!! Black diamond is great and functions as expected
