In reply to TRJ:
As Oli said, a dyneema sling is rated at 22kN; a krab, depending on make, is about 24kN, which isn't a massively higher rating. If a krab ends up with it's gate open through being badly positioned, or cross loaded this drops dramatically. Therefore in these conditions the krab is the weakest link.
I'm just a bit concerned what you would use instead of a 'full strength' krab?
