What I was going to say.

I have three sets of keys.

Disco keys
House keys
Work keys.

I only take what I need when I go out. Not only does it stop the keys rattling but if you lose one set then you don't lose them all.

Why take the car keys if you aren't taking the car for example?

^^Me too.
I just have a single key for the car with a bit of hootchie string on it. Got into the habit with the bikes because you don't want a bundle of keys rattling around on the headstock. Besides all the weight of a big bunch of keys is what destroys ignition tumblers.
Try it, you'll adapt pretty quick.

Who cares!

And yes, I'm old.

I always unwind the ignition key when off-roading off the main ring,I dont like the noise either.
Snap hook,top idea,I MUST DOO !!!!!
Too many keys cause extra weight and chew the lock out,big$$$ to fix.

Happened to me a couple of years ago. Very costly & inconvenient! Now only have the Rover key. (Not that you'd notice keys rattling anyway)
