These are my favorite locking biners. they are a bit larger than some and the screw lock work very smoothly.
I own almost a dozen of these now. It is my main stay for all of my rigging for long trad routes.

This harness is the bomb according to my youngest son whom got this for his 6th birthday.
As mentioned before it looks cool to the little guy because its like the adult harnesses. I'd like to see adjustable leg harnesses but the harness is very safe.
I will be getting another one for my eldest as he builds interest in more than bouldering.

These were purchased by my father in law for my 7 year old son.
From day one these have been a torture to get into.
They seem to bo a decent shoe, although as stated they are really hard for my son to put on. In fact they have never been used due to the fact that he says they hurt his feet.
I am planning on getting the fuegos by La Sportiva which are easier to put on. My youngest loves the fuegos and cruises in them.

It is a good locker however I don't care for it personally due to the fact that it is so small in comparison to other Lockers that I have.

It was hard to use when I first got it. but i have found it easier to belay from than even my revso that I now use while trad climbing due to cutting back on weight.
