I suspect that the safety factor in the strength of real Petzl gear
over what is really needed for normal use is so great that the fake
gear is not really dangerous. For example, does it really matter
whether a Croll opens at 900 pounds or 1350 pounds? You should never
take a fall on an ascender anyway. Still, of course, if you think
you're getting Petzl gear, you should get the real thing. Just don't
get paranoid about relying on somebody's Petzl gear because it might
be fake. -- Mixon
