I just picked up the 908BK-1501 and am considering making a paracord lanyard - I typically don't run one on my EDC knives, however interested to see how many of you do. Pics always appreciated
Some of my knives, because of coarse scales, tight clip, shape, or whatever; are just harder to get out of my jeans pockets. Those are the ones I put lanyards on.
Lanyard? Or did you mean fob?
Yes, I know, a large portion of the knife community uses the term lanyard to describe something it isn't...which, for knives, is basically a retention loop. I will occasionally use a lanyard on a med-large knife (for safety and/or comfort); but I don't see much use for one with an EDC size unless the knife is likely to be lost if dropped (while fishing, perhaps).
On the other hand, while I may appreciate the look of a nice fob, having one hanging out of my pocket quickly becomes an annoyance; so I don't adorn my folders or small fixed blades with them. I recognize the functionality, and can see the attraction...I have just never been able to tolerate one long enough to become a fan.
