I envy you guys who have minimal keys.  I am forced to carry an alarm remote for my '09 Chevy Suburban, which is way too big than it needs to be.  My car alarm actuates if I unlock the vehicle with a key rather than the remote.  Stupid Chevy.

I'm on revisions 3838487576763621345693827278485675828 more or less  :rofl:

I cannot seem to slim down my key chain.

Yes the top and bottom were slightly different shades and that was more noticeable when paired with the SAK.

It's good to use black for a flashlight's head because black is both a more efficient heat absorber and radiator than other colors, so it helps wick away heat from the LED so it runs cooler and prolongs its life, especially when using dangerously strong voltages such as 10440 (3.7V)  Li-ion batteries for "turbo output" [usually not recommended]. Gold/orange for the body improves visibility in low light so it is easier to find the flashlight in the dark, especially if you drop it in the brush or tall grass. . . .

. . .at least that would be my story and I'm sticking with it!  :whistle:

Nice Classic!  I've a couple of these guys, as well as a MiniChamp.  Love them all as they are so handy.  I'm looking into a Micra now too.

Thank you, it's my first and so far it's been great. I'm thinking about adding one to my car key. Good luck with the Micra.

Currently on my keychain: Vic Classic SD and the Quattro screwdriver. Great tiny combo.

I can highly recommend that Quattro screwdriver to anyone!



It's great, surprisingly useable. For those who may not know, it's a part for the Victorinox Swisscard Quattro cards, the official namecode is A.7235, you can buy it separately as a replacement part. I got mine at my local Vic dealer. They are usually priced between $2 and $4.

^ To add to that I'd like to point out two things:

A) although this is a rather poor multiway screwdriver compared to ones which are thousands of times heavier and bulkier, [think the conventional reversible 4-in-1 you keep in your kitchen drawer--seven inches long and that you would never carry on a key chain] it gets the job done 90% of the time and is so light you can carry it as EDC without a second thought.
 
B) "Quattro" is actually the name of the (no so great) plastic Vic Swisscard multi-tool gizmo this screwdriver slides into. The screwdriver itself actually is made such that each of the Phillips head bits fit two, not one size of screw so in truth this is a 6 way screwdriver, not 4-way. Although perhaps not "optimally", some spec pages claim that the Philips tips cover: #00, #0, #1, and #2 screws, plus you have the 3mm and 5mm tips: 6 total!

As a replacement part it at least at one time was called: Victorinox 30532
Some ebay sellers list it this way

Talking about this screwdrivers, how would you guys attach it to your key chain?  Clips?

I put it on a simple typical flexible metal keychain ring. I can simply take off the screwdriver in 2-3 seconds, so I have no problem with that.  :tu:

Exactly!  :tu: "Quattro" is the name of the whole card multitool, the screwdriver itself doesn't have its own name (except the A.7235 code), but a lot of folks are simply calling it the "Quattro screwdriver", so I went with that name.

It does the trick very well (if the screws are not recessed or heavily tightened). Great addition to every EDC.
