The carabiner has been around forever. At one point it was actually used for climbing, but that purpose has all but been forgotten ever since it was appropriated by men everywhere for use as the missing link between keys and belt loops. We still don’t quite understand how having a wallet in your back pocket and sitting on it is bad for you and a fistful of keys isn’t, but that’s not the point. The carabiner has been rethought and modified before, but never quite like this. Bauhaus Titanium Carabiners completely rethink everything but the reason we own carabiners with their unibody titanium designs. They’re available in around ten different sizes/styles and two finishes (hand brushed and stone tumbled) so there’s an option for practically anyone. Before you ask, yes, there’s even a few (the K series and the L66) that will even open bottles.
