I do not understand this but maybe it’s because I’m a guy and keep my keys in my front pocket. I keep literally the BARE MINIMUM of things on my key chain. So far as I even have separate keychains for separate vehicles instead of having one key chain for all of them. My SO on the other had has 2lbs of trinkets on her keychain.

I don’t have Seperate Keychain for each vehicle, I have all of my vehicle keys on quick releases, so I can just clip on the vehicle key I want to drive. It’s great. I do sacrifice minimalism a bit for some practicality in other ways, but yeah, I try to keep it light.

• My house key.
• Parent’s house key.
• Current vehicle key.
• Minimal flashdrive with Ventoy on it.
• Different minimal flash drive for normal files stuff.
• USB C to A adapter so I can use the flashdrive with my phone/steamdeck/etc.
• Google FindMy Tracker because I am the type to misplace my keys.
• Smallest bottle opener I could find.
• Telescopic pen, mainly for geocaching, as I’ve forgetten a pen way too many times.
• Sofirn SC01 mini flashlight. They don’t seem to sell this anymore unfortunately. It’s a super tiny stainless steel (so it matches my pen and flashdrives) 10180 powered flashlight that’s actually pretty bright.

Sounds like a lot of crap, but it ends up looking like this, which isn’t too bad, considering all of the utility it has.

Where’s your chatelaine?

Had to look that up. I’m happy keeping my keys in my pocket.
