gear retractor - steel cable keychain-style spring-winding lanyard

Contemporary field tools are marvels of engineering and design, but they can't help you if they are floating to the ocean floor, or bouncing down a mountain never to be seen again. Protect your valuable investments with this simple piece of equipment.
There has been a lack of solutions for keeping gear attached to you. Lanyards get tangled and hang out to be snagged. Diving retractors are generally too heavy, bulky and expensive for light gear. Our high-strength, spring-loaded reel is a compact 35mm housing, holding 2 feet of thick 2mm plastic coated steel cable. Fitted with twin spring-gate, swiveling carabiners, it clips to: flashlight, folding knife, cell phone, keys, or wallet. When using the split-ring, it quickly switches from tool to tool and stays out of the way till needed. It features a high-impact ABS shell, and brushed-steel, Civilian Lab logos on titanium color backgrounds. Reel holds 170g before extending.

A Winner

By far, the best retractor that meets my needs. WIRE cable and compact size are two main criteria for me, and this one fits the bill.

Very durable, and I was sold after the first one I purchased around 15 years ago or so. I've since bought more for myself and to give away. My first Gear Retractor is still going strong. The decal shows quite a bit of wear, but performance is as good as day one, including the spring. I searched quite a bit for a suitable retractor, and tried a few, but this is the best so far. There are others that are smaller, but they utilize nylon cords, which are NOT for me. And there are other WIRE retractors, some with longer cords, but they are huge. These retractors are a little on the pricey side, but given the performance and durability over many years, I haven't found anything better.

Very strong!

I have tried other retractable items, but this is by far the strongest most durable one I have ever seen or used. Very capable of handling the rough daily duty that I put it through. The only complaint that I have is that the metal decals on the sides bearing the company logo fell off very quickly upon receipt. I don't really need them or frankly want them, so it's all good. This is a great item that I am very happy to have found!

Very solid retractor

The retractor is perfect for keys or attaching to one of their wallets. One of the stickers on mine fell off but stuck back on easily and seems to be staying in place. Not a big deal.

great looks and function

I just bought my first replacement rewind. the first one lasted over 2 years. The coating on the cable started to wear close to the clip and then progressively got worse once there was a tear. the exposed wire cut into the metal feed eye hole and started catching. Several times I have gotten comments about my rewind and wallet at counters as I pay. one suggestion that may make the product last above two years is to put additional key rings or something to extend the length of the rewind without having the cable have to do so for you. this will keep the cable wound up inside the housing and protected from keys and other objects in your pocket. To the manufacturer: Maybe a stronger metal on the eye hole where the cable comes out? Either way i will be coming back again and continuing to recommend this device.
