So there is no teeth in the device for grabbing the rope, it is a smooth piece pinching the rope. It works at specific angles but it WILL slip eventually. Throw in the extra money and get a KONG DUCKY or a petzl rescucender.

I Bought this for Tree Work but found something that worked better for that. Hope to still use it for Rock Climbing!

Works very good for a flip line adjuster. I'm happy with it and will be getting a couple more here very soon

The QKDS ascender is well made and does not damage your when loaded. It is fairly versatile because it is rated for 8 to 13 mm ropes. The ascender uses a ribbed cam to grab the rope, so there are no sharp surfaces to tear the outer sheath of a rope. Understand that the manufacturer has not received UIAA certification. Also, never use this device as a stand-alone rescue ascender. Always use a hollow block or secondary ascender as a backup device for redundancy in any situation while ascending. My only concern with this device is the possibility of a defect being discovered at some date in the future; would the manufacturer issue a recall on this product? I have no answer for this.

So I got this to swap out my prussec knot on my linesman belt for hanging a tree stand. While im not a climbing expert I can tell you this particular item isnt meant for that. I felt very unsafe and really didnt work. I would spend more money on a reputable piece of climbing equipment. They are out there for not much more.

Works well with 3/16" rope. When the rope is thicker the cam did not lock down very tight.
