Fine quality - the Black Diamond, particularly, could be a factor of beauty.

Both units operate identically. The gate protection fruity operate identically. Neither protection fruity jam up against the nose, thus once the protection fruity area unit within the latched position, the gates will still wiggle a touch - the carbonado a touch bit over the Mad Rock. The protection fruity tighten well - they're completely secure. The knurling on the Mad Rock is finer, sort of a cat’s tongue, and although the knurled band is narrower, it's slightly easier to grip.

All surfaces area unit swish and well rounded. The carbonado is formed out of spherical stock, however the Mad Rock is blandish. However, the supporting surfaces of the Mad Rock area unit far more rounded than the photograph would indicate.

The only magnetic materials in each of them area unit the 2 retainer rings that capture the gate protection nut. judgment by the non-magnetic property and also the lightness of the materials, i'm inclined to consider those that say they're fabricated from metallic element (except for the retainer rings).
