I got bored and decided that all of my folders should have a lanyard. If not attached, then at least have one made specifically for each knife. So, here they are. These are just my recent additions...

nice job. i typically EDC a stockman, so no lanyard point, but i don't really like lanyards too much anyways. they always get in my way.

but those are well done, and i like the idea of having them handy in case the need ever comes up.
 
Boker Subcom. Medium: gutted OD 550 cord. I had to take the knife apart to get the split ring on without bending it (the split ring) permanently. The lanyard is attached to a separate ring so that it can be removed quickly if necessary. The lanyard is a box stitch design.

Spyderco Native. Medium: black lace. This is the simplest of lanyards: a loop threaded into the lanyard hole and wrapped around itself.

Spyderco Tenacious. Medium: gutted OD 550 cord. The first strand of 550 cord is about 4" longer to allow for threading in the lanyard hole of the knife. Box stitch.

Spyderco Delica (pink). Medium: gutted orange 550 cord and pink shoelace. Box stitched.

I think the Native is jealous. I can't tell for sure what knot you've got tied at the end there, but it looks like it's probably a simple overhand knot. Maybe you fix it up with a figure 8 or figure 9 knot to make it feel a bit better. ;) Nice work all around.

Nice lanyards. Don't use them myself, but those look pretty good. What I really noticed is that the clip is in the correct position on your Delica and Tenacious :D
