Review on Convenient and Sturdy Victorinox Stainless Steel Belt Hanger Key Fob by Mandy Jones

Revainrating 5 out of 5

This is how it looks in and out of the bag

This belt clip is the answer to my everyday problems with carrying my favorite Victorinox Hercules, one of the largest models. It's too big to carry in a loose bag. You can wear it that way, but it tends to sit horizontally at the bottom of your bag, which is like a little brick in your pocket. This is an impractical way to wear this model and most of them won't do it. I ordered a fanny pack to solve this problem, but I found I didn't like the fanny pack either. The fanny pack worries me, especially when I have to sit and lean against something, and it shows too much bulge under my shirt, which might mistake it for a hidden gun, which I didn't like. I've tried several other unorthodox ways of wearing the Hercules but none of them were practical and I was about to give up and just drop the much smaller Victorinox until this belt clip accidentally caught my attention. This has COMPLETELY solved the transmission problem. The Hercules now hangs securely and vertically around the center of the bag, so the weight is hardly felt as the weight is now on the thigh instead of the bottom of the bag. There are no problems walking or sitting, it sits securely and comfortably in your pocket, and you can even forget about it. It may be a little visible but that's not a problem for me, it's obviously the favorite "Swiss Army Knife" for most people as long as it's a little visible. So far I've been to crowded public places many times with no problems, and most of the time it tends to be completely hidden, especially if for some reason I've gained a few pounds on the light side. This belt holder was the answer to my carrying problem, it's great. You can actually wear large models with any outfit with a belt. Here's a photo where I'm sitting in shorts and on a belt clip with a knife.
