Dad’s got a pocketful of keys. But he doesn’t just need a key holder. He needs a key holder that’s made from aircraft-grade aluminum, looks like a swiss army knife, can hold between 2-100 keys, and comes in an array of colors. He might even need one that can double as a USB drive. And for all that, he’ll need KeySmart.
