I have a Keep Key wallet and I have Bitcoin and Ethereum on there however I cannot access my Bitcoin Gold... I owned Bitcoin at the time of the capture of the split however it did not appear after the split, I asked Keep Key and they say that I have to use a third party wallet and do this whole risky process that I may even lose Bitcoin if not done properly.

Does anyone know a wallet that accesses them all?

I used Coinomi which worked fine. As the forks get ever more poxy you might have to change wallet to access the more obscure ones. I ended up using Bitpie/Bither for stuff like Bitcoin Diamond.

Whatever you do make sure your BTC leaves the wallet with that private key before claiming any other forks. And since it's conceivable you can derive a seed from an individual private key you'll need a new seed on your Keepkey if you return your BTC to it.

You can get the private key from a seed with this - https://github.com/iancoleman/bip39 and then import it into another wallet.

Gentlemand thanks for the response as it's a bit technical, what is the seed?  I understand that all of my bitcoin should be off of the Wallet before doing this step in a new wallet.

It will be the 12 or 24 string of words your keepkey should've given you when you set it up. That's what allows you to restore your coins in another wallet.
