Review on RAYTEEN Synthetic Shackle Recovery INCHx22 83 by Michael Ward

At the time of writing this is priced at around $22 per staple and these soft braces are very affordable. The quality is almost identical to the $49 brands here at Revain. The weave is nice and firm, the finish is good, and the bright orange color makes it easy to spot in the dirt if dropped. About a year ago I switched all my rescue gear from metal D-rings to soft shackles and the weight savings and safety improvements have justified the cost! There are slightly better prices out there (2 for $35 for almost the same quality), but this Rayteen block is very good. My ONLY negative point I can say is that the knot is big compared to the hole it has to go through so it can be a bit tight (especially when new) but that's good since this makes him safer.
