Article: Pivot 2.0 - The Next-Gen Swiss Army Key Organizer

Pivot 2.0 - The Next-Gen Swiss Army Key Organizer

Keyport Pivot 2.0
The New Pivot 2.0 (left to right) Titanium, Aluminum, Stainless Steel

Since the introduction of the Keyport Pivot back in 2016, we have wanted to provide you with a complementary alternative to the Slide... a premium Swiss Army style key organizer that holds your current set of keys along with our wide selection of Modules and pocket tool Inserts.

We reviewed all of the feedback you have given us over the past few years and have integrated it into this next version of the Pivot. But we didn't just take into account your feedback; we reviewed feedback from other key organizers and incorporated that as well. We think that the Pivot 2.0 will set a new standard for Swiss Army key holders and other keychain alternatives.

Unlike other key organizers, the Pivot 2.0 is not just two pieces of metal sandwiching your keys between some screws that constantly come loose. The Pivot 2.0's unique features are machined to the finest tolerances to work with our proprietary anti-rotation mechanism and unique Modules and Pocket Tools Inserts. Holding up to eight keys and tools on the inside and numerous modular configurations with custom Faceplates and Modules (OmniFob, NEBA Knife, MOCA II, WeeLINK, Pocket Flare, etc.), that snap onto either side of the chassis. It is the most advanced EDC system available.

Pivot 2.0 Beta Tester Feedback

We made some significant updates to the Pivot, and beta testing feedback thus far has been excellent.

"The Pivot 2.0 is definitely a step-up. TPU band is perfect!" ~ Mark

"I am rough on all my toys, but the Keyport has been good so far. Love the TPU, feels much sturdier and pleasant in the pocket." ~ Matt

"The end cap is such a perfect change. This is a premium product. Well Done." ~ Craig

"Great upgrades."~ Dan

Keyport Pivot 2.0 Details and Parts
Pivot 2.0 Parts

Pivot 2.0 Updates include:

  • Replaced metal band with durable and streamlined TPU band. TPU, otherwise known as Thermoplastic Polyurethane, is often referred to as the bridge between rubber and plastic. The material appears rubber-like, which means it can be extremely flexible and smooth to the touch.
  • Replaced small D-ring with more robust D-ring. The feedback we received was that while it was nice to be able to lock the D-ring down when not in use, more people wanted a larger D-ring to connect a wide range of carabiners to it, not just the tiniest ones.
  • Replaced metal spacers with Delrin 
  • Stronger and more durable including the aluminum anodizing
  • Simplified setup - We have created one of the easiest, if not the easiest setup, of any key organizer
  • Available in stainless steel (Spectrum) and titanium in addition to aircraft grade aluminum

Building Upon Pivot 1.0 Strengths

The Pivot 2.0 has retained the trademark features of the original including:

  • Modularity - Ability to snap on our tool & tech modules (including our new OmniFob Smart Remote Module) to both sides of the chassis
  • Custom Faceplates - Ability to snap on custom faceplates to show off your own personal style
  • Anti-Rotation Mechanism - Key/tool stack can be set to the preferred tension, clicks every 90 degrees, and prevents unintended loosening
  • KeyportID Lost & Found Service - Unique serial number laser engraved onto the chassis; each Pivot comes with a 2-year subscription

Pre-Ordering the Pivot 2.0

Instead of using Kickstarter this time, we will launch pre-orders for the Pivot 2.0 on our website 10am PT on Wednesday, 9/23.

We will be offering the following Pivot 2.0 versions:

  • Aluminum - 0.7 oz. - Anodized Colors: Black, Red, Silver, Blue, Orange - $24.99
  • Stainless Steel - 1.4 oz. - PVD Colors: Spectrum - $34.99
  • Titanium - 0.8 oz. - Colors: Natural Glass Bead Blast - $59.00

While the weight of stainless steel is double that of the aluminum Pivot, it is still very comfortable to carry by all accounts. To put this into perspective, a 4-port Slide also weighs 1.4 oz.
