What makes the Key Square different from any other stainless steel key chain that groups all your jangling metal door openers together. First of all, it's square, so your keys aren't able to swing around like a rotary dial, which can be annoying.
It is an improvement on the caribiner, which takes away the trouble of organizing your keys, but can be bulky hanging from your pants. The overlaying metal section provides enough adequate space for it to curl around your belt loop and hang attractively from your jeans. The KeySquare is finished by hand and will not rust or corrode. Another great thing about it is that scratches are able to be removed by using a scotch pad so it will never look distasteful and it doubles as a bottle opener. It is made by Adam Hogsett.
