OmegaPacific biners - a word of warning	12-Sep-2005 At 8:46:22 AM	climbau

I have a OP Jake because of the wide gate opening. This makes it perfect for certain rigging situations. It has never occured to me to use this biner for anything other than when I need to get a lot of rope in the one biner, simply because I feel they are too big and bulky for a belay biner and overkill in most other situations. I can however see the potential (as demonstrated by the experiences of others) for damage to rope and perhaps the edges need to be softened to avoid future issues. But I also think that we have to be responsible for the choices we make regarding gear selection (how much gate opening do you really need in order to clip a belay rope through?).
