I acquired my Raumer Handy from Expé-Spelemat in 2016.
The Raumer Handy is 110 mm. tall, 39 mm. wide, and 30 mm. thick, and weighs 131 g.
The Handy is a specialty carabiner with a V-notch at the top end, a springwire gate, and a twisted chain link for attachment to the seat maillon.
The front is stamped with "PATENT PENDING, "HANDY," "Raumer," "ITALY," and "SOLO↓CORDA." The rear is stamped with ""ONLY↓ROPE," "← 12 KN →" and "STAINLESS STEEL."
The Handy is designed to be used as the
second seat carabiner recommended for bobbin users. Made of stainless steel, wear is not a major concern, but it is an extra device and it weighs more than a standard carabiner. It is also not large enough
to pass the bights needed for locking a bobbin off in the standard manner.
