? This looks virtually identical to the Ti caribiner I just bought on eBay last week from a US seller for $8.75! If you want to wait a couple of weeks you can have one shipped from overseas (assume China) for $4.75 and have it in virtually the same time that this drop would ship. Looks like some one here is trying to scam a sh#t load of money!

TutmanYou sound very proud of buying knockoffs with low-grade titanium alloys. Might as well have gotten the steel knockoffs to get better durability and a lower price if you wanted to go the cheapo Ebay route. The Handgrey ones sold on Massdrop and Amazon are the original design and pure titanium (not cheap). Even the better grade titanium knockoffs are going for $35+ on Ebay.

kokinHey, there's some good stuff coming from China... Massdrop /Ferrum Forge Falcon comes to mind. Just bought a set of titanium scales for my BM griptilian from Flytanium. Great quality and guess what,.. they're made in China.

TutmanJust checked it out completely different thing but still think 50 bucks is way too much for the one on MD.

TutmanNone of the Chinese products you listed are particularly cheap though. Essentially you just proved kokin’s point; if you want quality it’s going to cost a pretty penny. No hate, just pragmatism.

TutmanCanadian here, the H1 is worth the money. For something holding my car keys which costs a significant amount and other keys that would be a huge hassle to replace I'm going to invest in the original designer and quality of the handgrey.
For 10 years I was cycling through your usual $1 to $7 dollar/hardware store carabiners and the springs all went loose. Since I was gifted the handgrey 3 years ago it has been strong. I have since gifted another one to a friend from massdrop since its like half price compared to buying direct.
We also need to support original creators and not keep funding our dependency on China.
