Ditto to the first two of UW's. 8) I also keep a Southord Stainless jacknife kit on my keyring. It's come in handy a few times.

two sets of keys

cell phone

wallet

zippo (i don't smoke, but this, too, has come in handy a few times)

and most days my 5 pc HOPE 06 TOOOL lockpicks. (not a lockie by any means, but I feel comfortable picking on the way to and from work and at my local bar)

I have an awful habit of removing everything from my pockets whenever I arrive somewhere, however, and have lost a LOT of things over the years.

They went for $30 I do believe.
For the best book out there on high security locks and their operation, take a look at amazon.com for High-Security Mechanical Locks An Encyclopedic Reference. Written by our very own site member Greyman! A true 5 Star read!!
