Do you know who is the manufacturer of this carabiner?

And the uses?

Thanks in advance

In reply to promotore: I think it's a Disney Karabiner, extensively used in the Jungle Book to allow any climber to be like you oo oo, or me ee ee.

In reply to JIMBO:

So are you taking the Mickey?

or is it perhaps a Minny Karabiner...?

Someone makes lots of weird shaped krabs for hanging keys on etc., frequently sold in outdoor lifestyle shops like Tiso, Blacks etc. Not for actual climbing use.

In reply to promotore: looks if it could be used for setting up some sort or Y system or hanging belays maybe. other than that its mickey mouse in disguise.
