True Utility Keyshackle+, Key Organiser and Multi Tool, Black, One Size

It's a great little thing to keep your keys neat. The tool works well too.

Keys shaft is held in place by small winding ring sticking out from aside and you need additional tools to add/remove keys. Loop is too short to allow keys twist in 360. It means you have to spin spare keys _down_ otherwise it will be very uncomfortable to hold and turn your needed key in the middle. Included "tool" makes everything even worst. It's bent at the edge and sticks to the nearest key making it very tricky to get it off the way when this key is needed. It also pretty prickly and hurts while in the hand. Keep in mind your key's handle now inside the holder and you have to use whole _thing_ as a handle instead. And bunch of keys sticking up will hurt your palm. Clipping lock (carabiner) is too small and inappropriate design. These clips are great to hold things in place but not suitable for everyday use.Great idea. Bad implementation.

It is a good product, but it's a bit flimsy.And small, and expensive for what it is.

Wanted to get rid of so many keyrings and have something compact, this is stylish and easy to use

Firstly, I didn't really need the key organiser - I was hoping this was a cheap way to get the True Utility keyring multitool, since every way I found to buy it had expensive shipping.It's not. The tool that comes with it looks like the keyring multitool in the photos, but is worse in every way. And that's saying something, because the keyring multitool doesn't really work either. In the attached photos, the tool which came with the Keyshackle+ is black, and the actual keyring multitool (eventually bought separately) is silver - I'll refer to the Keyshackle+ tool as the KST and the dedicated version as the KRM from now on.The KST is only a single L-shaped piece of metal, unlike the KRM (which is U-shaped and holds the key, if not very well). This means it will sit against a key, but unless you have something firmly holding it in place the key will immediately fall out, and it's useless as a way to stop your keys making a hole in your pocket. Even if you get the KST held in place (with rubber bands or heavily overloading the Keyshackle+), the screwdrivers and nail cleaner are much longer than with the KRM (one of the above images has the KRM sitting on the KST, and you can see the overlap), with the result that the KST protrudes beyond the bounds of a typical key with various sharp edges. Maybe someone wanted to use the screwdriver with a key in place to add support (the KST is a moderately robust bit of metal, but it's still sheet metal and not very comfortable to hold), but the upshot is that you can't "put it away" by hiding the pointy bits behind a key.Obviously, being a single layer, there also aren't tweezers, unlike the KRM. Being a single layer does make it thinner than the KRM, which means it just fits in the rubber key blade sheath that I've been using to stop my house keys scratching my leg, but the nail hook in particular means that getting it back out of the sheath is very tedious.It's a good thing that the cutting tool is labelled "cut", because you wouldn't know otherwise. It couldn't make a dent in its own packaging. The same is true of the KRM, to be fair, but if you're going to get the attention of the TSA you may as well actually be able to cut something with it. You might eventually work through a piece of string with it, but you'd probably get there as fast with the file.So it was completely counterproductive to my attempts to stop my key having pointy protrusions, especially since it may cause me difficulties with the UK airport authorities because they for some reason think you're going to unscrew the aircraft (as far as I can tell).As for the actual key organiser, it has the advantage of keeping the keys in a straight line, unlike a traditional keyring. That's the *only* advantage. It doesn't protect them, and there's no way to adjust the length, so unless you have the expected number of keys they'll rattle around. One could perfectly reasonably make something like this with a long sex bolt (honestly, they're called that) and some kind of pin to stop it unscrewing, and you'd be able to make it fit arbitrary sizes. This is a solid bit of metal with a True Utility advert on one end. The other end is pinned with, of all things, a split ring. In addition to reminding you how much better you'd be just using a split ring in the first place, any pressure on the keys pushes it so that it stand out to the side of the leather U shape, where if you get it at the wrong angle it'll dig into your leg. Of course if you want to take a key off, you have to remove the split ring from the end of the organiser, by which point you may as well have removed it from a key. Except that you'll definitely have to put it back on again, of course.The semi-carabiner attached to the top of the leather seems decent - but it's only useful for the leather (it relies on the slot being the right size), and there's not room to add anything significant alongside whatever you're choosing to clip this to.Oh, and it came with a load of plastic keys (to stop the organiser looking so useless, as it is with fewer). So if you want some quieter keys to use for a stage play or something, you get those (if nobody can see close enough to read "plastic" or spot the manufacturing burrs).I don't really know how you try to have a multitool that fits neatly on your keys and attach it to a small organiser for keeping your keys neatly and conveniently in your pocket, and end up achieving almost none of these things. The basic idea is perfectly sensible, but for every detail of achieving it, someone seems to have made the worst possible decision.Avoid, obviously. The actual KRM is better, although not much.

The multitool looks and feels really cheaply made, when fitted it makes it fiddly accessing one of the keys. The central bar is held in place by a normal keyring, which looks bad and makes it awkward to hold. Great idea, but personally not great to live with in the real world.

Discreet and tidy so keys aren't bulky in pocket or handbagGood to have mini bottle opener for convenience and that drink on a train with friends 😅
