    I don't know about a kilt pin working, but if you got a bigger shackle it would make a fantastic belt buckle.

    What about making up a tiny wood-shelled stropped block? Even more arcane, but I think it'd be very cool.

    Now, wouldn't THAT be cool? It'd be a blinking lot of work, but I'd wear one in a flash if I could find/make one.

    I think I have plans for a wood penny bullet block. Where a penny become the cheek and stops the bearing from comming out. would make a decent size.

    For the money, I have always preferred Harkin blocks to Schaefer or Ronstan.
    I carry a Harkin Microblock key chain purchased from West Marine that is pretty compact, but lacks the swivel of yours.

    How about a monkey fist walking stick to go with it???

    Well... Good luck.
    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
    Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…
