Essential leverage and lightweight durability with the Pro Key Nut Tool
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"This nut tool is a lifesaver on trad climbs. It’s strong enough to wiggle out stubborn gear, and the leash keeps me from dropping it mid-route. Lightweight, simple, and tough—everything I want when I’m cleaning placements."
The Wild Country Pro Key Nut Tool is an essential piece of any trad climber’s kit, designed to retrieve stuck nuts, cams, and other passive protection when the pitch doesn’t clean itself. Built from strong yet lightweight metal, it provides the leverage needed to remove stubborn gear without adding unnecessary weight to the rack.
The Pro Key includes a wiregate clip-in point for easy access and a molded handle for a better grip during tough extractions. With an included leash to prevent drops, it’s the tool we trust when we need precision, strength, and a second chance at getting our gear back.

Bust a nut
Can't go trad climbing without bringing a nut tool. the lanyard and built-in carabiner make it light and easy to use.

Not for Big wall climbing
- Familiarity:
- I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
Was stoked on this until I took it on the maiden voyage of my first wall. Maybe a surprise to hear for some but hammers are nice for removing bass stoppers on walls. I was blown away when the tool broke in half when I went to remove the second nut ever with it. Managed to use what was left for the wall but suspect this tool wasn’t designed to handle the force of a hammer. Will reporpose the leash but thought I’d mention it for other wall climbers that this isn’t a good option!

Wild Country (Super-Duper) Pro Leash
I purchased this nut tool about 5 years ago when I bought my Wild Country Classic Rocks. Amazingly, the leash helps when getting nitty gritty and removing a properly welded nut or some crag booty without dropping your tool at height. Once when teaching a beginner on the ground, they accidentally got my brand new cam stuck in an inwards flaring crack, I used the tool to chip away and open the granite enough to get my new toy back. The pro key didn't take the slightest damage as I sawed and bashed away at the tough quartzite granite. Pros: -> Durable -> Leash and carabiner style clip to keep it neat on the harness -> Slim profile w/ a large surface area to use it as a "hammer" Cons: -> None Suggestion: Similar to Metolius, I think cutouts usable to tighten bolts would be nice. I do not think this is a necessity or a downfall of the product. Also, I think the leash attachment part could be larger, but I have no issue with my Arcteryx AR385-a XS harness.

Best nut tool
Kinda hard to clip to some thicker gear loops but the leash is awesome

Strong and Super Useful
This was sturdy enough not to feel cheep. The band on it is strong. Got caught in a rock when dropped and was perfectly fine. The surface area on the back side for knocking out nuts was small enough to be streamlined but also big enough to get a good clean, easy hit.
