To be honest at one time I owned a Reverso 3, the previous ATC guide and a classic ATC. I no longer own the guide. 95% of the time I just use the Reverso, I use the ATC sometimes in the gym and I think about bringing it along when I'm going to do a lot of rappelling because the Reverso wears much faster than the BD stuff. Then I just think that I'm being a knob and leave it with the gear that doesn't get carried.

PS M9 can tell you about the guy (who shall remain nameless) who was carrying a Gri-gri, a reverso and a figure 8 whilst climbing ...

PPS Actually I forgot, someone gave me an old Stitch plate which I plan to use one day to belay with and scare newbies ...
