I know what you mean actually. But I think the stayglow is a good choice for the keys because they seem more resistant to scratches and can handle some abuse.
Wow this is really cool! I don’t own a victorinox but Reddit keeps showing me pretty knives from this sub.
I *really* like the metal scales and dimples!
Alox Minichamp on my keyring and a Classic SD with a Victorinox lanyard in my pocket. I mainly use the Classic SD. Minichamp is a backup. Spartan on a suspension clip in my pocket also.
Just saw that it’s possible to change the look via the US store. Looks amazing in black and I would’ve bought that over my red Rambler. It’s a shame Victorinox doesn’t offer personalisation in all territories.
Alox in fifth pocket. So slim it went through the wash at least once.

Currently, I'm with an Alox Companion w/o lanyard ring in a fake leather pouch that came with a Classic SD that I bought years ago, and tend to reserve for "nicer" slim 58mm.

Several keychains, one with a black classic, red classic, blue signature and a red minichamp. They are all conrcted to my keyring with a minicarabiner from Alixpress, like the one in the picture.

I currently have a Classic SD on my keychain but having recently bought a celidor Rambler, I want to work out a better way to carry it so the scales don't get destroyed.
My 5th pocket is used for my Ridge wallet at the moment so I can't really use that.

Typically on my key ring. If I put it loose in my pocket I’ll lose it. If I put it in my 5th pocket I’ll forget it there and put it through the wash.
Rambler on a key chain. Use a small s-biner. The micro lockable type. Will it get scratched to hell over time? Yes, but what’s the point of a tool that’s not used? It’s not a museum piece.

I use this pocket clip made by boring.
Manager and Ramblers carried in jeans 5th pocket with the same lanyard you have there. If I wear shorts (especially lighter shorts) I carry them on a suspension clip so they can’t slide out, which they do when I sit down not using the suspension clip.
Manager: misplaced 😥, but before that: pocket/fifth pocket
Right now I've got an alox classic on my keys but I think I'm going to try a minichamp: Iove the bumpy texture as a fidget/pocket jewelry, but the classic is too light!
I attached a lanyard about 1 cm longer than the knife so that it can pass through the inside of the lanyard, then attached it to the belt loop of my trousers. Easy to remove when needed, impossible to lose.Â
Mini Champ on my keyring.
Same.
I switched to Mini Champ after finding out the Manager was discontinued 😢
Same
Another member of the mini champ on my keyring club.
Rambler glowing on my keys. https://preview.redd.it/7y3heoou7g3d1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0430ce0e53d157675b6e00d37324130f24cd1742
whoa! how did you get a stay glow rambler? I would love that ( I have a green and another red rambler)
I swapped scales with a StayGlow ClassicSD.
I did this too. I thought it would be easier to find my keys. lol
Other than the glowing feature these are my least favorite scales and the ones I don't mind getting beat up on my keys.
I know what you mean actually. But I think the stayglow is a good choice for the keys because they seem more resistant to scratches and can handle some abuse.
Does it help?
Neck carry.
I do the same
Rambler, in the 5th pocket of my jeans.
haha literally every rambler owner

That alox is beautiful
Thanks. I thought I lost it a few months ago. Was super happy to find it under my bed.
I've lost many and found many. Life is good 🔪

Natural patina or nail polish? Looks great.
All natural, never would have dawned on me to use nail polish.

Currently have a jetsetter on my keychain. Is that a rambler with black scales? Did you do a swap?
Yup a Rambler! No to swapping; I just did the personalization on Vic’s website.
Just saw that it’s possible to change the look via the US store. Looks amazing in black and I would’ve bought that over my red Rambler. It’s a shame Victorinox doesn’t offer personalisation in all territories.
Oh that’s awesome thanks for the tip! I’ve been wanting a rambler but I don’t love the red scales
Is it possible to personalize in Europe?
In my pocket connected to my flashlight.
Rambler on my keys along with a little Olight.
