Keys go in the pocket with everything else.

Or could you have just the two on a smaller keyring in the bottom of the pocket?

Idk, maybe because I remember my grandfather having one of those like 2" rings with like 20keys and one of those leather straps, and even one of those retractable cable things, idk..JR

I'll add some more thoughts while I'm at it.First is that your keys seem to be quite 3-dimensional. It's natural with a light and so but it would possibly help with pointiness if you could minimise one of the dimensions. I know those carabiners are awesome but you might take a look at some swiveling solution (like what's used for fishing). With some luck that might help flatten everything. Second is that it's possible that larger pockets might be a part of the problem. If it allows your keys to move around that could be why the seem to pointy. Whereas a slimmer pocket might keep them in check.(yes, I might be overanalyzing things...)
So how do you carry your keys and other toys with you all day? What do you think is the best way? The carabiner, leather/nylon strap, or just loose in pocket? I always carried mine on a carabiner and hooked them to a belt loop, only thing was I got tired of hearing them bounce around while walking, so I made this little setup, so everything got strapped tight and nothing made any noise, only thing is I'm getting a little tired of it and it's a little annoying to take them off to use them, so I was just wondering what everyone thinks is the best way of carry?JR(Image removed from quote.)

I think you carry a Vic Money Clip, don't you?How did you attach that ring? By drilling the scalesThank you in advance!
Here's my hand-made pouch. Holds 2 keys, a car key, a Utili-key, and a tiny flashlight. But I could have sized it to hold almost anything. I made one for a friend recently that held 3 car keys( Biggies, each with remote), and three house keys. That rides in a purse.Everything rides very comfortably, and zero noise. The "Tail" passes through the rear of the pouch, and attaches to one of the key-rings, so nothing gets lost and there's no need to disassemble anything during use.
My darn keys and the darn keyring is a myth I´m still trying to solve. I carry mine on a carbine. With splint rings and a Vic Minichamp or Classic or Micra etc. I was thinking about a WunderKey. But way too expensive for my taste. It rattles like hell - so I just put them into the bag during the day. As I use access key card at work to open doors and such, it is ok for me.
