What use could you possibly have for a carabiner 10 times the normal size? We’re not really sure. But you’re sure to look like a badass carrying it. That’s the premise behind Polar Metals’ Bad Ass Carabiner, a 64-gram titanium beast strong enough to hold your entire body weight and more.

 

The Bad Ass Carabiner seems like an exercise in futility, or, at the very least, a waste of metal, but its uses extend far and wide. You need to hang a punching bag in your hotel room? Just clip it to the Bad Ass Carabiner — it’ll hold. Need to tether your dog but forget to bring a stake? Not a problem. Just wrap his leash around a tree and clip it together with the carabiner. It’s tough enough to hold back the biggest Rottweiler.

 

The Bad Ass Carabiner measures 120 by 60.5 by 6 millimeters, making it the perfect size to fit right in your hand. The aerospace-grade titanium is thick enough to take a beating, so you never have to worry about it breaking during use. It’s also resistant to corrosion and is the most biocompatible and safe metal for the human body.

 

So is the Bad Ass Carabiner practical? Probably not. But it sure looks pretty cool. We’re sure you can find some use for it on your adventures or just around the house. Polar Metals’ Bad Ass Carabiner was set to retail for $115, but you can find it at a steal on Amazon.
