I love keychain tools—but frankly only most keychains it becomes a pain to add and remove tools or even carry them since they poke out at just the wrong angle to poke a hole in your pocket. CountyComm sells a cheap little keychain ring that is just perfect. CountyComm’s Cable Key Rings are made from stainless aviation cable with brass screws and barrels. They are lightweight, strong, secure easy to open and reclose and big enough to allow your keys and tools to lay flat.
The BlackRapid strap features a large pad, attaches to your camera or lens’ tripod mount, and is slung diagonally across your body for maximum comfort.

Put it back.
