I added the crab claw for suspension. I have them in my pocket, and clip the crab claw on the pocket. They hang in my pocket, but do not bounce around, and instead of sinking too low in the pocket, they just hang unnoticed.
I prefer the crab claw over a suspension clip because the crab claw retains better. It grabs the pocket securely, and even if my keys hop out of the pocket, they'll still be there.

Good, I'm just opening up for new ideas. 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 overanalysing 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?

Hi!
I think you carry a Vic Money Clip, don't you?
How did you attach that ring? By drilling the scales
Thank you in advance!
Post by: MadPlumbarian on April 12, 2016, 05:44:46 PM
No to the Vic money clip, I carry a leather i.d. Clip.. What do you mean about the scales? The red military dogtag? That had one hole already, I just drilled another on the other side, then just stitched it on by looping threw the hole and then to the outside, not that to noticeable since I used red thread..So how do you carry your keys and other toys with you all day?

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.
Post by: MadPlumbarian on April 13, 2016, 06:14:11 PM
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.Very interesting, I have a leather kit that is simular, I just never got to it..

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.

Since I worked for a locksmith back in the 80's.
(NOTE): not advertising for Mr lock, jist the picture.
The great thing is they lay flat in the pocket no matter how many keys & doodads. I was using a dangler to keep them off the bottom of my pocket (run through the little split ring), but didn't like the way it hung. YMMV.

The ring is large enough to still fitt a Maglite even with the keys. A hair or ranger band keeps them quiet when needed and tucks in the molle on the back of my cell holster when not. There is enough length I can tuck in my pocket or leave to dangle.

This is my "daily" keychain rig. It is all mounted on swivels. The keys are wrapped tightly in a leather holder, which; does not make a peep or poke into my leg. It is minimal but has room for added stuff like a keychain flashlight or whatever the occasion dictates. And it is SWISS :)I'm really liking this contraption!

Silent carry.Really think this is a great set up too Kampher! But what sorcery do you use to keep the keys floating?

Oh, ok so a murse.. I kinda started with a fannypack, then moved up to something like that, then the pack just kept getting bigger,, right now I have a cross body backpack, but I hate having to take the hat off to put it on or take it off, the same when I get in/out of a car so I'm working on a mini custom backpack, at least that way it's easy to take on/off! Another thing I almost bought I forget what the name is, but it has multiple pockets and sits like a beauty pageant ribbon, nice and neat on the shoulder then right down to the hip, crosspaq or runnur, that's what they were called..https://www.hama.com/00103740/hama-katoomba-camera-sling-bag-150r-black

It's a DSLR bag, but use it for edc from time to time as well.
The sling is detachable with the buckle, and there is a second buckle at the lowerside of the sling for added stability.
Inside is completely custumizable by velcro edged dividers.

So, here's a few pics as I worked on it and then completed it, the hooks I got from an old crappy messenger bag shoulder strap, I had to snap off the piece that held the strap then file it down. I kinda like it, but it's not a 100% it stays on, I've always just used a carabiner, so idk, I mean if seriously pulls it's only snaps, I might have to do something to make it more safe.. thoughts on it?

Now I went up to the #3 s biner, but am getting worried split ring will fish its way off by itself. so i'm contemplating the locking version, and new jeans, this is very important cause I have had belt loops break and they are tough to sew back on since they are very thick denim.
In the meantime I added a small nylon hanger to the sbiner that has loops for split ring, seems ok, but is adding too much length to set up. Not sure there is ever an end to this key config thing.
Post by: MadPlumbarian on December 06, 2016, 05:53:53 PM
Have been experimenting with set ups, tried the nite-ize plastic s-biner#2 but felt it was too small especially if you have a few or many pounds on your belly, hard to get on and off belt loop with fat stomach in the way :rofl:That they do and it hurts to attempt to stitch them by hand! That's why I fig it would be good for something to go around the belt itself rather then a loop. Only thing that sucks is your sooo used to where the loop is, so by going with something that goes around the belt it's either too far forward or too far back! Kinda like getting new jeans or a new sheath, something just doesn't feel right on location..

Post by: MadPlumbarian on December 06, 2016, 08:20:43 PM
I stopped having my key dangle from my belt loops as well. Seems like a bad idea IMO and one can "easily" attach them to a belt or pocket or waist band.I thought of getting one of those, but for the sak instead.. put the sak in the sheath then hook up the belt clip with a small chain, long enough to take the sak out, but not so it's dangling. This way if the sak(the Pharmber) ever came out of the sheath it wouldn't go anywhere without me knowing! That and I guess it would look good, no?

Vic classic and 47's mini and a few swivel lobster clasps to easily remove them from split ring. was gonna replace the S biner with the locking version, but the zip tie works well. I didnt like the split ring directly on the s biner cause the keys would pass through it from time to time and if you use the light some times keys jut out and its awkward, so I added the black nylon hanger. working pretty well, but still not perfect.

It worked pretty good, but zip tie seemed to loosen its grasp after a few weeks, so I caved and got the #3 S Biner with the slide locks, needed some button cells for my vics and battery junction was only place I could find the locking sbiner #3 and batteries for swisscard lite & midnight mini champ. seems to lock up nicely and better than my rigged version.

thats a good idea.

my house has a keypad lock so no key necessary.
for work i have refined it down to the necessities over the past many years and i'm into anything brass lately so i put together a simple paracord lanyard with brass belt hook etc.
it lets the keys sit low in my pock, just above the bottom and i can whip them out quick or even use a key without taking it off my belt.
