I have a thing about keyrings, even though i only carry one key with me everywhere ( except my bike key separately ) There are different keyring combos in most of my backpacks, jackets etc. This one has The Victorinox Hiker ( my favorite SAK ) along with lanyard, a solid silver coin i was given and a Sikhote-Alin meteorite ( which was so hard to drill through ) and container for anti-inflammatory pills ( stupid useless knee )

I be really interested to see what knives you carry on your keyring ( if you do ) maybe get some ideas for myself. :-)

My girlfriend keeps a Swiss Army classic on her key-chain
The toothpick really comes in handy when I take 'er out for Barbecue or pack a Copenhagen
on the way to the mall/ respectable establishment

I used to keep a Spyderco Ladybug Salt Series, fully serrated hawk on my keychain until I found out how useful it
was for electrical work in cramped spaces working HVAC.
It now has a dedicated spot in my tool pouch.

In other words, I think a Swiss Army Classic and/ or Spyderco Ladybug are perfect key-chain knives.

HAH ! you reminded me i have a tiny spyderco, only an inch, inch and a bit long that i could put on a keychain......then i found two more different small spyderco's. Now i have to go get three new keys cut, make lanyards and find cool bits too add.

I don't know whether to love you or hate you :) lol

EDIT....well love or hate i don't know, but i thank you for reminding me i had these knives.

Hahaha....just had another look and i have a classic. One with buffalo horn scales....sadly no attachment to put on a split ring though :-(

BUT......i did find a small Maserin that i put some mammoth ivory scales on. Its the Fili....something or other. Now i have to get four keys cut.

That Maserin is expensive for the size !!!

Just looked at their website...never heard of them before. I think that one of yours would be illegal to carry here, sadly.

Tha IQ knife though......wow i love the design. What is the quality like on their knives ?
 
Vic Classic SD on my key ring too. My wife has one too but it sits in her purse. She didn't like it on her key ring.

I know. I have no idea where it came from. Probably a gift from someone back in the day. We were always giving away or swapping knives.

For some reason whenever i put a torch on a keyring, it stops working. I have a gold Mi-x6 i'd like to put on one but i'm worried that too would pack up on me. I now just carry an i-protec inspector in my bag ( wicked good torch )

so-so... Getting them apart, your keys on, back together is a pain. Obviously won't fit a big automobile key, and about 4 keys max is what it fits comfortably. Both me and a buddy had a hard time getting it set up right so the keys would open. Quality, yes, design 6.5/10. But I carry it sooooo I guess I am willing to live with it. You can get ultralight keys from them to cut for your house key.

Another one that our draconian knife laws will not allow us to carry. All we can have is non locking folder with a cutting edge of less than 3". Anything else we have to show a good reason for carrying it about our person.

Thinking about it, i guess that's why tactical folders are not as popular in the UK.....we just can't carry them.
