Knaider/Swaider tutorial

@pesqimon you raise a great point. I’ve climbed with it twice and use the same buckle in a lot of different heavy and stressful applications, but it’s not worth a fall.

Yeah, the more I think about it, I can see it holding your weight when everything is normal but any twisting action will cause that buckle to fail. I’m sure of it. The meta through buckles work great and are reliable for this application.
