I demand that one of my friends open a bar so I can give this to them as a congratulatory gift. Or, you know, I could just get it for myself. (Instant gratification? Yes please.) This little key chain includes the above skeleton key, skull, beach stone and hand-stamped brass tag, which you can customize. [...]
