They call it a trigger snap.

Now *that* was quick.

But it doesn't seem tb working Google-wise.

I get hundreds of hits on 'Swivel Snap Hook' but they're all a
single hook with some sort of bail to keep it from coming
un-hooked - whereas the essential feature of the one I'm looking
for is that there are two hooks that overlap when the thing is
attached to something.

Likewise "Snap Shackle" returns many, many hits - but none
relevant. The only superficially-similar one is a
trigger-release snap shackle which is sort of the opposite of
what I'm looking for in that it is designed to release quickly
and easily... whereas mine is inherently/intentionally difficult
to release

Only one I found so far is by a Chinese manufacturer who seems to
lump them in with "Snap Hooks": http://tinyurl.com/298jly as in
the large one on the upper right.
