Roofy these shackles come undone. The knot is simply passed threw a sliding eye. When pulled tight the eye closes so the know can not pass threw.

Under load do you think it will lock on itself and no come undone.
Like when you join two straps together the wrong way??

I wonder if they have a SWL
If it does't have that then you may be held accountable when the come off and someone gets hurt
These loop systems have been used in a D-LOOP on compound bows for years on a smaller scale and are bullet proof. On a larger scale of 10 or 12mm they will hold up to the pulling forces I would expect but not sure in a recovery snatch situation.
They have their place in the market place for sure
