The BLAZE carabiner's popularity
is solidly based on a clean design sporting
several outstanding features. Solid gates
are best for clipping bolts and the bent
gate model is famously easy drop the rope
into. The frame of this biner has a deep
bottom basket (the vertical distance from
gate opening to rope bearing point) which
offers additional security and room for
clipping around multiple slings - like at
the anchor. Smooth curves, polished finish
and great all around performance with a
medium weight and a modest price (spend
the rest of your cash on some FLEX FRIENDS).
25 kN major, 7 minor, 9 gate open with 21mm
(straight) and
27 mm (bent) gate clearance.
