That double-sided gate is where the \"W\" comes from: two bends instead of one, so the wire is worked in two places rather than levering on a single hinge, and a lure clips in from whichever side falls to hand. Katsuichi form it in high-hardness SUS stainless steel and set the bend in a V so the knot cannot creep along the wire, which holds the lure action steady and lets the wire carry its full strength. The cross-lock structure also cushions a sudden load instead of passing all of it into the leader knot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere It Sits In The SN Range\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSN-6 (this model)\u003c\/strong\u003e — double-bend construction and a two-sided gate: the strongest, bulkiest choice, for big baits and hard-pulling fish.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSN-3 Egg\u003c\/strong\u003e — the other power option, cross-lock in a single rounded gate; slimmer than the W, still built for big baits.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLighter and faster: \u003cstrong\u003eSN-1 Round\u003c\/strong\u003e everyday, \u003cstrong\u003eSN-2 V\u003c\/strong\u003e for darting minnows, \u003cstrong\u003eSN-5 Spiral\u003c\/strong\u003e for no-gate quick changes, \u003cstrong\u003eSN-7 Open Swivel\u003c\/strong\u003e for rig building.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDouble-sided opening — rig from either side, useful with cold or gloved hands\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-hardness SUS stainless steel to resist deformation under load\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eV-bend structure stops the knot slipping along the wire and holds the lure action stable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCross-lock closure that cushions shock loads rather than passing them to the knot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNS Black finish, made in Japan by Katsuichi; five sizes stocked, 8 pieces per pack\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow To Rig It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhere it goes\u003c\/strong\u003e — Tie the leader to the closed V-bend with a wetted uni or improved clinch, never to the gate.

Any snap on a locked drag, on a heavy bait, or on a fish being turned out of structure is carrying the rig on one gate. Size up rather than run a small snap hard.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCheck both gates\u003c\/strong\u003e — Because it opens from two sides there are two closures to confirm.
