    I will have to look into that more. You aren't the first one to ask.

    I like where you're going with these, but they're so light already! 3.5g. I personally couldn't justify the extra cost for the weight savings based on 2 cord claws attached to a CRL. Not enough pressure applied to require extra strength. I think these are near perfect as they are and the cost isn't outrageous AND they work so well. There are just too many other places for me to save weight that would actually see a direct benefit, like my own weight.

    Now if I had money burning a hole in my pocket I might buy Titanium.

    Alrighteythen... ordered a few to try out. Didn't really have a need, but free shipping and relatively low cost means its worth a look.

    I was wondering the same thing. All my ridge lines are the larger cord also.

    The 1.8 zing just makes it through the opening. I have some 1.8 cord I tried to get to go thru but it would not.
