These work just as well as the key straps with snap hook and o-ring attachments for most things, and additionally provide the option of hooking to a clip. I don’t have any items with a clip, so cannot comment about that functionality. But they’ve been useful for so many other things. They accept one or even two of the smallest swivel carabiners. There are two sizes to choose from. The only negative for me is that they don’t come in all of the lovely colors that the regular key straps come in. But consider that you can get five of these while you can get two of the regular ones for $10.00. I like to use them in my non-TB bags that I’ve retrofitted with o-rings. I highly recommend these utility straps.

Awesome addition to my backpacks. I’ve used it to hang my bags from hooks on a train, in a restaurant, etc. I also use it to secure my bag to a chair to prevent snatch and grab thieves from absconding with it.

Great for attaching a pocket knife, scissors, etc but I use it more often as a loop for connecting or hanging items (shown below). It takes up almost no space in my bag and it's super handy to have on hand for unexpected attaching/connecting needs.

Not much can be said - the Tom Bihn straps are always perfect, exactly what is needed, perfectly and fairly priced, and made in USA. I’m using this to connect a padded Tom Bihn pouch to a backpack.
Minor feedback - the website should do a better job of explaining the differences and different uses for this utility strap and the key straps.

If it’s connect to your bag you won’t lose it. I’d actually like to see these in different lengths for different tools.
