Keys
on: October 28, 2007, 10:58:38 PM
In my line of work I am constantly unlocking and locking doors (no i'm not a prison warden  :)) so my keys need to be quickly accessable.

Does anyone have any good ideas of any clips that would attach my keys to my belt loop that isn't too fiddly to get off and can be done quickly and preferably with one hand?

Cheers  :cheers:

You could always use a caribiner.  They work pretty good.

Also a while back someone mentioned that they hook their keys on their multitool pocket clip.  I always thought that was a pretty interesting idea...

Don't hold your breath waiting for it though...  Def said he'd send me a keychain like 5 years ago and I'm still waiting for it...   >:D  :pok:

Tactical Keychain- for opening doors behind enemy lines?

Don't call it that! That's just doubled the price.  :)

Sosakonline carabiner looks cool!  Fire at will!  :)

Tactical stuff is cool though.  It gives you the abaility to kill off ninjas with absolutely no training.

I have been using this type of leather belt key clip for over 30 years.  The keys live in my back pocket and are silent when walking.

That's kind of what I do- I clip my keys to a belt loop with the SOSAKOnline carabiner, then tuck them into a pocket so they don't make noise, catch on things or scratch cars when I walk by.

I'm sort of looking for the same thing Benner. I was looking for a good keyring where I can have easy access to keys and what not. The best thing so far I've found is this http://www.heinnie.com/Bags-and-Wallets/Civilian-Lab/Accessories/Civilian-Lab-Gear-Retractor/p-281-287-361-462/

It has a steel retractable cable so you can unlock/lock your prison cell  ;) then give the cable a tug and the keys spring back to where they were.

I had something similar to that before and I really liked it.  I only stopped using it because the steel cable broke off at one end.
