This replaced that one which failed recently. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Seems very sturdy *by A***A on 10 February 2019* I've not had chance to use this yet but it does seem to be very sturdy. The cord is long enough to allow me to hold my dive torch at arms length so I should be able to use it without feeling restricted. The keeper is a bit bigger than I would have liked but others I looked at had shorter cords & I wanted the longer cord. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great holder stronger and sturdy *by A***R on 24 August 2015* Great holder use it in work to hold my box cutter which is a Stanley knife has a good draw weight so the knife will not fall to the floor like with other holders, and allows it to always be at arms length and of course so you won't loose it either. This has a good strong cord which even after 6 months of heavy use so no signs of fraying (other holders I have used have totally proben after 6 months) and looks like it will last for a long time yet, very well put together no chance of you loosing anything its attached to. ## Frequently Bought Together - Hammerhead Industries Gear Keeper Small Scuba Flashlight Retractor - Gear Keeper Hammerhead Industries RT4-5914 Medium Mount Scuba Flashlight Retractor - 1pk - Scuba Diving Accessories - Swiveling Snap Clip with Q/C-II Split Ring Accessory - Boomerang Scuba Diving Retractable Gear Tethers with a Kevlar Cord and Universal End Fitting - Great for Scuba Diving Gauges, Flashlights, Cameras and More - Made in The USA --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/48653461-hammerhead-industries-gear-keeper-small-scuba-flashlight-retractor](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/48653461-hammerhead-industries-gear-keeper-small-scuba-flashlight-retractor) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-05-06*
