I used the standard fare drug store carabiner to tote my keys around. What are some cooler options?
>>18103662honestly it's not about what's cooler as much as what feels best for how many keys etc. if you are already using a normal carabiner that's about as 'cool' as you'll get unless you start searching for vintage stuff to have a conversation piece. at that point it's up to you. if you think buying some EDC marketed bullshit will make you cooler to other people, then you would be incorrect
>>18103662That shit is onions af. Hipsters in the late 2000s ruined that shit forever.
>>18103669Good point, anything beyond the basic shit you can find at the grocery store probably comes across as try hard.
>>18103670What’s the alternative? Keys in pocket? Carabiner/keychain is optimal.
been using one of these for probably 15 years now mainly because it has a bottle opener and makes a nice sound when my keys jingle
>>18103662i can't find a picture of it online but mine is a carabiner type thing that you can snap onto your belt loop with one hand at the top, then a circular part with a gap you can rotate to pass your keyrings to the lower part to lock them ini like it because otherwise my keys scratch up my phone, and it's fun to fiddle with
>>18103688The leatherman is a cool option. I was looking for one with a bottle opener. I know you can pop bottles with lighters and shit but I’ve embarrassed myself too many times failing to do that in front of ppl.
>>18103769you sound like a dork
>>18103674What the fuck are you talking about, retard? Grocery stores don’t have carabiners.
>>18103837some do as keychains if you can believe it
>>18103662been using this flytanium cabiner clip thing for years
i use the craighill wilson. it's not as easy to use as a carabiner but it's funky.
This thing Ti2 wharbiner
had this for a while. i was looking for>lots of spring tension so it never undoes itself accidentally>non opening loop for the keys themselves so it never comes off unless i want it toi got this from trayvax so MiUSA which is nice i guess and it met both requirements
>>18103837You’re the retard. Most chain grocery stores, like safeway for example, have an aisle with an end cap that has all kinds of things like carbiners, hammers, polish, dyes, lightbulbs, power strips, etc. you wouldn’t know because ur mommy probably buys your groceries.
>>18103670What does onions mean
>>18103948This is exactly the kind of thing I've been looking for. Thanks anon!
>>18104017I think if you type the word starts with a “S” and rhymes with “boy” /fa/ auto corrects it to “onions”
>>18104078Onions?
>>18103662Nite-Ize makes great ones, including the S-biner line.Also, fish.
>>18104128Pic related
>>18103948Can confirm this is both based and utilitarian.
>>18103677>What’s the alternative? Keys in pocket?YES, LIKE A PERSON.
>>18104219everyone is allowed to have their reasons for doing things they way they like-less bulk in your pockets-prevents scratches on your phone or if you have a nice leather wallet-easier access to your keys-more difficult to lose/forget your keys since you would visually notice them gone, on top of the locking mechanism of a carabiner being more secure than loose keys in a pocket which can be prone to slipping out while sitting down
>>18104232a carabiner is just another metal object that will scratch my phone, idk how it's supposed to prevent that
>>18104219Let me get this straight, I’m expected to carry my big ass retard smart phone, my wallet, a pocket knife AND keys all in my pockets? The weight and bull of all those items will have my pants sagging down and bulging out. Absolutely disgusting. You should get your head checked out if you think that’s okay.
>>18104563You don't really need the pocket knife unless you work manual labor and I suspect most people here do not.
A bag>noooo that's gayyyyokay, keep being retarded
>>18103917>>18103986You should blur your key cuts because the mods might be able to track you down. It’s surprisingly easy to make keys from a .jpg
>>18103699Lanyards are kinda gay but hello paintball anon
>>18103662my physics prof has this, he also does an eyebrow trick to drop his glasses hands free
I used to just use a carabiner but I recently bought this. You loop it on your belt so if anyone tried grabbing it it won't just break your belt loop. It's really meant for wallet chains, but I just use it for keys.
>>18105555
>>18104328that will ruin my stealth
>>18104925i like how this board has zero moderation and is completely ran to shit by trollsbut the jannies somehow find time to randomly delete the pic of my carabiner https://warosu.org/fa/thread/18103662#p18103699and didn't even bother to remove the pics of people who doxxed their front door and car keys >>18104651 snortle chortle. this website is a shitty containment zone for the new sanitized corporate internet.
Liking this one.
>>18104578needed it when i got carjackedmy daily carry's a tiny boi but i was camping so i had a big one that was enough to intimidate insane ex-military mexican w/ gun
>>18105762
>>18103662I use pic rel to easily join different set of keys, but it wouldn't be suitable for attaching them to the belt loop
I put mine on the ring and then into fifth pocket of jeans. Convenient and comfy, yet secure.
>>18107391i clip mine to my TLC Tugger complete foreskin restoration device.
>>18107520Well, that looks dangerous. What if you get scared of something and make brash move with your leg?
>>18107530takes some pain to make the gainsone time my dog got ahold of the strap and wouldn't let go
>>18103948>craighill wilsonlet's see how your keys hang on this thing
>>18108264is this a threat, are you accusing me of being a shill, or do you actually just want to see my keys on it?
>>18107520how do you keep from printing when you go out in public strapped
I thought this was exclusively for lesbians
>>18108339>I thoughtThis has yet to be proven.
>>18108361I've lived in Seattle and San Francisco it's a mating call
>>18103662I used one of these but it's really just because it was the first thing I found that was a carabiner with a bottle opener. I don't actually clip my keys on my belt, I just clip it at the top front of my pocket so my keys don't bunch up down in the bottom. I might switch to the Leatherman one >>18103688 posted, does the same stuff without being quite as autistic.
>>18108339not anymore! The trend coming to every 22 year old near you!
>>18105780https://youtu.be/7gDR0WKNhj0
>>18103662I bought a black diamond standard oval carabiner 12 years ago and I've been using it ever since.

A bulky kong frog chained together until it sags your pants downs.
>>18108339>>18108395I've been doing this since high school
I just have my keys on a single keyring with little clasps for other stuff I carry around, which is more keys or a multitool.I should probably get a carabiner so that I don't have to keep them in my pocket all the time. It would be nice to carry a phone around without a case for once.
>>18103677>optimal difficulty of access for owner>optimal ease of access for thiefoptimal indeed
>>18110401operating a carabiner is not difficult, if you think it is you are probably a retard with disabilitiespickpockets are a meme or you just live in mumbai or something
>>18104232>less bulk in your pocketsare you carrying the keys to every door in your neighbourhood?>prevents scratches on your phone or if you have a nice leather walletKeys, phone and wallet in separate pockets>more difficult to lose/forget your keys since you would visually notice them goneYou won't visually notice them if they're out of visual range behind you like in ops pic> top of the locking mechanism of a carabiner being more secure than loose keys in a pocket which can be prone to slipping out while sitting downLocking mechanism makes them less readily accessible, I lead a very active lifestyle and never once have keys fallen out of my back pocket.>>18104563>the weight and bulk of all those items will have my pants sagging down and bulging out.The weight? How weak are you? Secondly how tight and flimsy are your pants that an average wallet, phone, keys and pocket knife would cause massive bulges and sagging? Are you carrying a couple of grand in 20's? A Bowie Knife?
>>18107391I like to fold up some money and put it in the fifth pocket.
>>18110403>operating a carabiner is not difficultIt is obviously it is more difficult than reaching into your pocket. Also, every big city in the western world has pickpockets.
>>18110420anon the degrees of difficulty you are describing are so minimal literally only an actual downy would notice the increase in dexterity required joggers aren't snatching keys off your belt, they just smash a window.
>>18110444>just make your daily life more difficult retard!
this is my daily go to.
>>18110511/based/ but I wish they would make that size in stainless.
>>18103662The most /fa/ carabiner is the rope side one that you got from ripping apart your quickdraws after they been have worn out by you.
>>18110420maybe if you look like a total mark i guess. only ever had pickpocketing attempts at concerts/music festivals/fairs/shit like that. even then its really died off ever since apple made it hard to resell stolen iphones.
actually come to think of it i havent even heard of someone getting pickpocketed ever since apple pay and whatever google's equivalent to it came out. do people even carry valuables on them in the city anymore? lol?
>>18108269I want to see your keys on it.
>>18110506you are the retard. operating a carabiner is not difficult for non SPEDs. you however, are a tard
>>18110506It literally makes your life easier because your keys are always right next to where your hand rests. You are the retard, now and forever more.
>>18110401This has to be some of their worst bait I’ve ever seen and yet hear I am responding to it. You’re a dumbass.
>>18103662
>>18103662I put keys in my pocket.
I like nite ize. Just made a backup keychain with a g-biner I had around because I'm a G. Might look at Gerber and see if they gots a carabiner with a knoife or something now because I'm feelin a little rowdy
>>18103662I have one of these with my keys, a few rakes and a usb drive
