All told, I'm liking the Matthew Walker knot, as seen on the ebony's lanyard and as the end knot on the Scout's above. Also simple, but just my speed.
The bone's lanyard bead has feathers on its little back.

The only leather lanyards I make now are just simple laminated leather bead type ones .
I originally made them for the purpose of a retention system for a design of SAK sheath I came up with, but have since used them for everyday lanyards .
