A Simple Climber's Multi-Tool which performs multiple safety functions for the field of rock climbing. The device is a convenient effective safety back-up device to be used with a solo lead climbing belay device. The device also functions as a standard belay and rappel device. With the addition of an Attachment Snap Hook, the device is an auto-locking belay device for one or two ropes. With the addition of a loop of cord, it can perform functions otherwise performed with specialty knots for safety and self-rescue such as the Prusik knot, Bachman knot, and Klemheist knot. The device can be easily moved along the rope when the First Snap Hook is gripped and pulled with respect to either end of the rope, but will jam the rope against movement when the Main Body of the device is constrained from movement and an end of the rope is pulled with respect to the device.
