Been doing it for over a decade.

>>17195280
it's for insecure people

>>17195280
This is only acceptable for lesbians.

>>17195324
reads like a vox article

>>17195280
I remember having one of these full of different keychains to the point it was getting to heavy and pulled down my pants.

>>17195328
dike-approved then

>>17195280
I have too many keys now and it's too jangly and heavy so I stopped doing it

>>17195324
Actually, correction, you could probably pull off a 70s revival gay guy look if you're homosexual.

>>17195280
idk, but I have a chain between the carabiner and the keychain, and the keychain goes in the nearest pocket

I hate feeling keys at the bottom of my pocket but I also hate feeling them jingle around so I just tuck them into a pocket. Also I used to lose my shit a lot as a kid so this fixed it, even though I won't lose my shit anymore since I learned to keep track of stuff I'm unlikely to ditch this habbit. I also bought a $120 titanium carabiner so I'm going to fucking use jt

>>17195378
got a link to the carabiner?

This is the full setup
-Ti2 titanium whar biner
-Niteize locking micro s biner
-1 inch diameter split ring
-Kingdston se9 g2 steel usb stick
I want to change it up so that it's all titanium, want to replace the niteize sbiner with a titanium shackle, the splitring with a handgrey knox titanium split ring knockoff, and the steel usb for a titanium one. Yes this is pure autism, I know.

>>17195382
It's discontinued unfortunately, he makes a new version that's way worse looking (pic related). Even if you do like the v2, it's almost never in stock, he pretty much only makes pens noe

>>17195308
How is hanging something so necessary outside insecure?

>>17195324
What
My bald 30 year old military larping roommate does this shit

>>17195387
man, that blows
and that I am actually liking the v2's design

No, but you can tuck the keys into your back pocket and minimize the damage.

>>17195401
You can’t have unauthorized shit hanging off you in uniform, sounds like you’re protecting

>>17195414
There's still hope. The v2 parabiner probably restocks maybe twice a year. Follow him on instagram and keep checking the page, you'll be able to get your hands on a v2. Hell, he might even reissue a v1, he recently reissued the noncarabiner version of the wharbiner, the whiner after it being unavailable for like 5 years. And yes the wharbiner and I assume the v2 can both be used as knucks.

>>17195443
1. Nice spelling
2. He is not constantly always larping he dresses like a normal person too most times

>>17195443
Is this a troll?

>>17195458
well, time to play the waiting game
thanks, anon

yes I hang my very awesome mercedes keyfobs on it .

>>17195474
anytime fren. I assume you're alright with cash since you're considering buying a $120 keychain, because if you see it's available and have to wait till pay day, it might sell out, they go like hotcakes. Also I don't know if you plan on using it to it's full extent, if you do you have to pay attention to which version you're buying, metric or imperial. Good luck.

>>17195537
metric for sure, cash isn't a problem between stable jobs and being usually frugal
thanks for the concern, though. Unironically

i've been rocking these since i started driving

nowadays i tuck them into my back pocket usually

also a fairly good indicator of who was a scene kid back in the day honestly

>>17195443
he said larp bro you're right

>>17195324
Protip: she's using the word "massive" literally.

>>17195400
reminds you of your small pp

>>17195564

>>17195586
>also a fairly good indicator of who was a scene kid back in the day honestly
What the fuck are you talking about?

>>17195604
>he doesnt know

>>17195280
fuck people that do this. fucking janitor larpers

>>17195280
It's retarded, you'll lose your keys easier than when you store it inside your pocket.

>>17195607
What you said is retarded, according to this thread there are atleast 3 subgroups that claim that the key on a carabiner is an indication of being part of that group. Clearly it doesn't.
>>17195631
Fucking how? I literally stopped losing my shit only after starting to do this.

>>17195600

>>17195308
That’s what insecure people say

I did this in highschool after losing my house keys like 3 times in a row.

Recently started wearing my keys on a d-ring again after losing all my keys + the lanyard they were on. My car uses a keyless ignition fob so that goes in the watch pocket on my pants and the rest of my keys go on a clip, but i'll usually leave it in my car while i'm at work.

also something to consider: if your keys are hanging outside your pants and are visible it is very easy to snap a pic of your keys and figure out exactly how your keys are cut in order to duplicate them. some businesses have started prohibiting employees from wearing keys on clips and lanyards specifically for this reason.

>>17195384
is that a fucking can opener?
why the serrations?
is that a... crystal?
also
>replace the niteize sbiner with a titanium shackle, the splitring with a handgrey knox titanium split ring knockoff
lol is that your fetish wtf anon

retards

>>17195401
She sounds like a massive dyke

>>17195324
i didnt need to read this to know making your keys an accessory is fucking gay

i was thinking about doing this as a cyclist its annoying when the key is an awkward position and digging into your thigh. and because we use a key for the bike lock we end up using our keys more often than most ppl.

>>17195942
Bottle opener, jiming for grip when using the sharp end as a box opener. There's no crystal, I think what you're seeing is the small fuller. Yes my fetish is to have a fully titanium keychain setup. If I can find titanium house key blanks you better believe I'll do it.
>>17195949
What troubles you? The v2 parabiner has the hexagonal cut outs to be used to turn nuts and bolts. Nuts and bolts come in metric and imperial sizes. Yes it's expensive, it's small volume CNC machined trinkets made by a dude in his shed in hawaii.
>>17195951
It's actually a reinforced nylon belt loop but even so that's not the point of the carabiner. It's overbuilt to be used as a pry bar, screw driver and a single finger knuckle duster. The ''thief proof lock'' is actually just a jingle proof lock so I don't accidentally open the gates on the s-biner and have my shit fall apart but this is the second one I've gone through, they warp after a while, hence why I want to replace it with a shackle, i just need to find one in the perfect size

>>17196011
Most of the people I see doing it are cyclists, part of the reason I also still do it. I very much recommend it.

This is now a carabiner thread

Basic bitch tier

>hey everyone, look while I open my cold beer with my faggot keychain

I'm sure it'll look wild at the party

>>17196587
Are you ok? Did your girlfriend cheat on your with a carabiner or somrthing? Weird thing to be so upset about.

Also basic bitch tier

it's a great way to get your keys stolen

>>17196588
I'm fine. I'm just laughing about everyone playing action man with their little key fobs.

>>17196613
Why the fuck would anyone steal your keys if they don't know where you live
>>17196633
>using key fob to open beer
>playing action man
Are you sure you're ok?

>>17195459
Clean your room Sam you goddamn slob

>>17195280
I bought pic related 12 years ago at an EMS. My dollar store carabiner cracked when I dropped it on pavement one day. I've used it every day for the past 12 years and it's been great.

>>17195280
I think it's both convenient and /fa/, I carry a small adjustable wrench, my keys, along with some laminated ID cards for ease of access to them. I fill my pockets with a bunch of shit so it takes me forever to take these items out and I'm constantly using them
also I hate the feeling of keys in my pocket

>>17196571
Yes.

Dangerous levels or carabiner

Quickdraw keychain to flex on the gumbies.

>>17195387
>>17195414
Man I fucking hate these EDC makers. Lots of them makes nice shit, but they charge a lot for it. Which would be fine, but then they go do shit like only dropping a dozen or so products every few months. Shit is infuriating.

> "Subscribe to my newsletter/insta/facebook group to know when I drop next!"
> "Bid on my instagram auction then paypal me $300 and I'll mail it to you"
> "Books are closed"

Like fuck off. I don't want a lifelong commitment here. I just want to give money --> receive product

>>17195899
>also something to consider: if your keys are hanging outside your pants and are visible it is very easy to snap a pic of your keys and figure out exactly how your keys are cut in order to duplicate them. some businesses have started prohibiting employees from wearing keys on clips and lanyards specifically for this reason.

I hear this shit all the time on leddit. Is there ever a case of this really happening? seems like a ton of effort.

>>17196588
Wazzat? I like it

>>17196659
Dont forget: Doing anything other than living a boring suburban life or wearing anything beyond plain work/casual wear makes you a poser

>>17198100
Yeah I feel you. Part of it is they can't meet supy demands and expanfing the operation doesn't make monetary sense. From a business point of view it's better to make less products so they all sell out than more so that they're always available. The other problem is when they move away from the product that gave them popularity and move on to making other stuff. Weaponized carabiners and bottle openers have a much smaller target audience than pens, pens are also easier and faster to produce, you don't need to put them in a cnc machine, you can just do it on an automated lathe.
>>17198110
As a regular person you prrtty much never have to worry about that.

>>17198119
Filename

>>17197946
At first I thought it's stupid that onyl 1 gate locks until I looked closer. I still feel like the second gate could be more prone to failure though.

no

>>17198110
it's easy to do actually

>>17198132
Yeah. From the looks I wouldn't belay with this.
Need to check the documentation tho.
