KM01

When I read the low star reviews and critiques of this product I was slightly concerned but I think this mini carabiner keychain is great. For those reading this review here are the facts: Size: Key-sized My photos show how the carabiner clip is the size of a standard US house key (Schlage, Kwikset). This is NOT a mountaineering size. This makes it the perfect size when you put it in your pocket since it won’t be bulky. Material: Titanium If you don’t know already, titanium is stronger and lighter than steel. That’s why it usually costs more. Compared to cheap aluminum carabiners, it’s much better constructed. Closing latch This works well and, with a little practice is easy to slip on and off the belt loop on my jeans (much like as shown in ad photos). Ring with carabiner: Steel As clearly documented in the product description, the carabiner and main loop are titanium, the key ring is not. In my photos I have the 3-ring titanium ring bundle (which I reviewed separately). For completeness, consider adding these for consistency and strength. Finish: Sandblasted I chose this finish since it can’t peel off and scratches won’t be as noticeable. Others have photos of what happens as normal wear and tear take their toll on the colored or polished variants. I didn’t see the point of paying a lot more for something that will get scratched or flake off over time. This also helps match up with other products in the line (like the ring bundle) or other items (like the TiSpanner in some my photos)

Makes carrying my keys easy. They sent me another one in the box so I gave it to my brother and he loves it too. Including it is easy and fast. I like the color even though it did start chipping. It’s ok because I like the rugged look.

I love the lightweight look and feel of this keyring. The carabiner design is great for clipping keys to a belt or belt loop. Fitting keys with large holes or larger items is difficult due to the size and design of the ring. That may be more of a feature than a flaw, unless you want to attach something else, like a car fob. The bottle opener design needs work though. It was more difficult to open bottles because the smaller design gives you little to grip and offers no leverage. The smaller ones are not effective bottle openers. I bought the titanium gray, but now plan to buy a different color, not because there is anything wrong with it, but because more visibility might help me avoid losing it.

What a great product, easy to use and excellent at retaining your keys. The bottle opener function is not to bad either. The size is great, not too small or not too big. The finish is durable and overall happy with my purchase.

Very durable and heavy duty even though it’s smaller in size.

I saw many reviews complaining about the size and weight of this product. I myself think it’s the perfect size, love the minimalistic aesthetic. And I also know that titanium is a light weight metal. I’d recommend this to anyone looking for a good quality carabiner.

Oh man, I really wanted to like this product, but I can't. For the price, you'd probably be better off with a simple cheap carbineer from the dollar store. It looks great on the surface, but this is the perfect balance of annoying to use, and overpriced. Sure, the titanium is high quality, but the design is lacking. For context, I have the KM01 version. The main problem is that your keychain rings can fall through the notch between the large and small part of the carabiner, without trying. This has happened when I have my keys in my pocket, when I throw them into my key drawer, or when they're handing down when driving my car. Then, because you need to rotate the connecting ring in the exact perfect way to get it back into the small end, you end up sitting there and fiddling with your keychain for way too long. Or, you just keep everything in the large part of the carabiner, and then you've just got a more annoying version of a regular carabiner that can pinch your keyrings in the wrong place. I wish they'd just use a regular ring to keep the other part of your keychain in place, and make it wide enough that it can't possibly slip into the wrong side of the carabiner. I ended up removing the little connector which mostly solved the problem, but my keys still sometimes slip into the wrong side. My criticisms obviously have some validity, because their newer version KD01 doesn't suffer from the same problem, since it has an entirely closed hole that's separate from the rest of the carbineer. But it's also 23$, which is way too much money for just a keychain carbineer. I know it's titanium, and I know you get it delivered directly to your door. But man, that's a lot of money for just a carbineer. Maybe it'll make a really nice gift for the right person, but I'd never buy this for myself. After several months of swapping key locations and standing outside my door for minutes trying to untangle a keychain knot, I finally think I found some magic arrangement of keys and connectors so my keychain is no longer a handheld puzzle that holds me hostage at the worst times possible. Now, it's only annoying sometimes. It's too late to return it, and not worth the effort, but I'd definitely buy something else if I had to replace my keys. As a side note, it's surprisingly hard to take a picture of a keychain without showing the teeth of the keys, but I managed it.

I'm 5'-10" and 175lb. I don't have what you would call big hands, maybe average, and this is too small. If you have bigger hands and fingers DO NOT BUY IT. You'll never get it opened. I've been using a cheap carabiner for years and wanted something nicer but this isn't it. It's nice, looks awesome but is 1/2" to 1" too short and close to the same on width. I could not get this off my pants easily one handed which is a requirement for me and I'm pretty sure for everyone else. They need to make a larger version and I'd be back to buy it.
