What is a Butterfly Key?

Butterfly Keys are inspired by the Balisong Butterfly Knife. However, It holds a key blank inside instead of a sharp blade.



The handles of the Butterfly Key measure approx 25mm in diameter and 70mm in length when closed and approx 125mm in an open position.

It is smaller than traditional Balisong handles, so it can fit neatly into a pocket or purse. Each key is produced from one solid block of Billet 6061T6 Aluminum (used for tactical flashlights, Audi R8 chassis, and even military aircraft!)

It is available in a stunning variety of anodized colors, as well as classic polished chrome.



The superb properties of Aluminum make it the ideal material for the Butterfly Key: it is lightweight, has an impressive tensile strength and is also anti-rust and scratch resistant. We have also added a keyring to the latch of the butterfly key so it can be attached to any keychain.
