Yeap. Neat little blade. Like the opening mech now that I'm getting used to it. I prefer spyderco though.

[evisu 2000]

anyone know where i can get a keyring like the sweet orr ones? i'd settle for a round one...

[pepper davies]

The Altadena Works Split Keyring is very similar.

good one, bless

[pepper davies]

Those originals are so awesome. I wish I had a split ring as cool as this...

[evisu 2000]

i was looking at that blog... japanese repros where to coppppppp

[evisu 2000]

yep those are the ones i mean... made in japan like the altadena ones, but actual repros haha

[conqueror]

i am ignorant on the issue - what do they do different to a normal, $1 keyring from a locksmith? obviously they are made by hand in japan etc, is that what justifies such a higher cost?

Here are the FH ones from Self Edge's website -- they're sold out though.

Could contact SENY or SELA and see if they have em in stock.

It's better because it's more expensive.

ed: but really, it's because it's made by hand, and replacing mass produced objects by storied, handmade objects feels really good. That mundane little key ring is something that you're going to see and handle several times every day, what better place to spend some money than on something you interact with on the regular like that?

[the Repeater]

I've lost two sets of keys from broken rings, so if they're strong and look cool, they're worth it to me.

I'm not one for ostentatious or many precious things, but not losing your keys on something nice to hold is a good object to spend on!

[neonecko]

Really diggin' the horseshoe split rings now that you guys have brought it up. Will cop the FH one from SE(if they get a restock) otherwise I'll just get altadena works one ^^

[stuntastic]

Up on woot.

Anyone got one? I plan on getting one or two for the B.O.Bs.

[stuntastic]

The Flat Head ring from Self Edge is dope. Haven't had any issues with mine since I got it last January or June, I forget which.

[i wear shooes]

stuntastic - what that be? i want

[stuntastic]

'twas a SOG EOD Powerlock Multi-tool.

[neonecko]

Its an Al Mar Falcon Talon if I remember correctly. Brane can confirm whenever he sees this.

[JackCrank]

Finally done with stocking it out. This includes some of the stuff I carry in my bag as well but not everything.

Received my Altadena Works split ring today! Looks awesome, love the smiley emoticon engraved near the top.

Just noticed Self Edge finally got a restock on the Flat Head version of this too (wish I had gotten that one to go with my FH Key Hook, oh well, too late)...

Heres a snap with my iPhone, I'll get better picks when its not so damn gloomy outside :/

[Hobbes874]

^Do those altadena works split rings come with the leather they picture?
