Where from?

I like metal/enamelled ones.

Does anyone know if there are any Mint Sauce ones?

Mint Sauce ones were a MBUK freebie back in the day.

There have been two, one from around fifteen - twenty years ago, and one last year.
I’ve got both, never used them for their intended purpose, though.
Thing is, anything can be used as a keyring, so long as it’s got a hole that a split-ring can be put through. My main keyrings are a ‘REMOVE BEFORE FLIGHT’ label attached to my car key, and a length of paracord, one end of which is wrapped neatly around a large ball-bearing, the other end knotted onto a split-ring with key, small knife, small flashlight, and containers with ibuprofen and hearing protectors in.
Has the effect of stopping my keys falling out of my pocket, the weight of the steel ball holds it in my pocket quite neatly and acts as an anchor.
The point is, you can make anything into an effective keyring.

"a length of paracord, one end of which is wrapped neatly around a large ball-bearing, the other end knotted onto a split-ring". Also known as a monkeys fist which is frowned upon by authorities.just a thought...

I thought wrapping a monkey’s fist round a ball bearing or bolt, or dipping it in paint, was only frowned upon if you’re going to use it on the end of a heaving line?

I use a cut metal hooped dog chain that fastens to my trouser belt loop so the keys will not go anywhere, being attached to your trousers all the time. So in short my keys are connected to my jeans by a chain like skateboard wallets are. Just take it off for nightclubs.

Crown cork bottle opener here. Never knowingly underbeered. I've had a few actually as they tend to shatter if dropped on something hard at the right angle.

Never mind all this monkey's fist nonsense, what I want to know is where can I get a value bundle with a pocket pen holder, a bluetooth headset and a leather holder with belt loop for a Nokia 3310?

Maybe, if someone was willing to lend theirs, you could have some more made?

I foresee no problems there, whatsoever.
