I've had this little Henley tool on mine for 3 or 4 years.  Pretty useless, but in a pinch...well you use what you have.

I have a couple of those sitting in a drawer.  I didn't care for it.

Surely people still use keychains?   ;)   Somewhat dead thread awakening time.   :whistle:

Here too: a very important part of my life. Keys-wise, just the house front door key (all vehicle keys separate). Tools currently as follows:-

Tritium tube
LM Brewzer
LM BtN #10
Vic MiniChamp or Rambler
Spring clip to attach to 40mm steel D ring on belt

Use the tools every single day.

Will post a pic of the tools another time but keychain wise:

-Keys: car key, a couple of house keys, locker key, and locked drawer key

- 'Brew Pry' a combination bottle opener and pry bar made of acid washed O1 tool steel

-Olight i1R EOS

-A Titanium carabiner with a couple of Ti split rings holding it all together

I used to have a Spyderco Honeybee (perfect keychain knife imo) but it went walkabout a while ago and I haven't picked up a replacement yet (stupid inflated UK pricing).
Check out my Youtube channel  for gear reviews, comparisons, and carry philosophy.

Ok. So here's mine. Nothing controversial, I think  :dunno:

1) The Swiss+Tech thing I've had for years (although I gave the original one to a friend)

2) The Trolly Dolly is something I've also had for years although the "Trolly" part doesn't work anymore due to the type of shopping trolley (spelled correctly with the letter "E") we now tend to have in the UK  :think:

3) The handcuff key is there just in case I misplace my official work one or you know...just in case  :whistle:

FYI: All have travelled through many airports with me with no issues. They also come to work with me every day (at a major UK airport) where staff are subject to the same rules as passengers.

I had to go back and put my Swis+Ttech in my car at the Canberra airport security check.  I was impressed that they noticed it, as it was with at least another 8 large keys.  I'd never used it so I'd totally forgotten about it.  I guess they must have really been on the ball that day.

Built myself a little keychain junk drawer multitool with a Keyport Pivot, a few of their modules and a few of my own pieces:


1. Keyport Pivot
2. Keyport PocketFlare (2 modes: a decent little 27 lumen front beam and 24 lumen "lamp mode", usb rechargeable)
3. Keyport NEBA knife (suprisingly sharp (8Cr13MoV), nice little letter/box opener)
[/size]4. Keyport WeeLink mini USB-C cable for charging my phone in a pinch)[/color]
[/size]5. Keyport Pen insert[/color]
[/size]6. 64GB Key Drive[/color]
[/size]7. Slim nail clippers that I harvested out of a little $3 keychain grooming tool[/color]
[/size]8. Sim card tool...figure it couldn't hurt to have a little pin-shaped tool for electronics, cleaning fingernails, etc[/color]
[/size]9. My work access keyfob[/color]

[/size]It's a little bulky, but fits a lot of the useful little odds and ends that would otherwise be jangling around on my keychain or on the bottom of my messenger bag. Fun to customize and always looking for new things to squeeze in there.[/color] :tu:


Oh yeah, and a Gerber Dime, cuz  :dunno:  (tweezers and that awesome package opener, I guess)

That looks like a clone of the Key Smart tool, what do you think the odds are it's actually brass? If yours turns out to be decent then I'll definitely be adding a couple to the cart!

Looks like they don't know the difference between brass and bronze...

Keychain, and more. I'm one of those guys who has a carabiner on a belt loop, because the noise makes it harder to forget my keys. The Brewzer obviously, and the Screwpop also hangs out there.

I guess the one on the left is some kind of Atwood-"inspired" design, but i haven't found the original. The Boker Toucan is for days when I don't feel like putting on real pants.

LM Micra most of the time. It's been off the keychain since February or so, partly so I could stay true to the 30 day challenges I was in, and partly to lighten the keychain.

Nitecore Tiki has been on my keys for the last couple of months.  Paired up with the ever awesome Mirca.

Oh man, I am so dull and boring. With all the gear I could be EDCing, I like to go minimal with just a Swiss+Tech 6in1 Utili Key hiding among my keys.

:like: :tu:

I have one of those. It's been on my keychain/wallet (I have to carry an access card as well) for years  :think:
Also, it's been through various UK/EU airports with absolutely no issues  :woohoo:

Been setting up my hiking/out in the bush keychain since getting a new TEC Accessories UFO-MS and some new clips and split rings.

TBH it’s a bit heavy but not too bad, will probably go back to putting some on a neck lanyard but like how it looks!



My daily keychain is a lot simpler

I enjoy setting up keychains and carabiners and such.  On one hand its relaxing to work thru options and set it up.  Its interesting what I come up with while I work out what I'm trying to achieve.  On the other hand once I get it set up I tend to not be completely happy with the set up  :facepalm:

I don't mind a heavier set up for outdoors as I like to feel the weight to remind be its there.  I like what you've done and what you have on yours  :tu:
