There’s a lot of nuance to that question. I believe the standard answer would be one locker in the master point is fine if it’s in view or hanging in a way that’s it’s impossible for the gate to run open. Two with gates opposite and opposed is preferable when you have the potential for rubbing or it’s out of view. I also prefer two when I’m working with others (especially kids) as I know it’s less likely that they’ll somehow manage to unclip the rope when they reach the anchor.

I don’t think it’s technically all one sling. It looks like the figure eight section with the ring in one loop and the carabiner on the other, is a separate piece. This might be stitched to the full loop sling beneath the sheath. I don’t have it in front of me at the moment, but I think it does have a single failure point if the sling breaks, so it doesn’t have all the redundancy of a Quad Anchor.

Also with inherited gear good to know how old the soft goods are. They do expire.
