A kong panic attached to a stick clip and can’t forget the grappling hook with climbing rope attached!

I tried this Notch Quickie to attach a belay device to my harness. But the tiny stops were so difficult to depress at multi-pitch changeovers; had to go back to a more conventional biner.

I just ordered one off of Stonecrag. How long did it take to ship? Any info is appreciated.

It took about 3 week or so if I remember correctly. Manuel Larios (the guy who make em') is really responsive to email and messages on the website.

I used to have a tiny 1-ton shackle. I modified the pin so it would go in by winding the handle like a music box then tuck on to 'lock' it.
