The Official Lanyard Thread

What's that knife in the foreground, bflying? Nice blade shape!

It's the Kizer Ki3452. Love it. And at my side right now.

I fell by the way side and will now add a lanyard to one of my blades....


Just waiting for the bead to arrive.

Awesome knife!

Beautiful. I've been really tempted to pick that one up also.

There's some nice lanyard/fobs on this thread! Here's mine. I like the functionality for extracting the knife and for the look. Skull is a GD Skulls sterling silver and Bronze pirate skull. Fob is black paracord tied with snake knots.

Waaaaay ahead of you Steve!!!
You can't see it in the other pics.

Well, actually, the more discerning can see the starting loop at the butt of the knife in your first pics, Joe. The keen-ness of my edges does not always extend to my powers of observation. :rolleyes:
 
I picked up a new-to-me Hinderer 3.5" XM-18 FDE last week and added a blue/black 550 lanyard along with a ti bead I had that has an almost identical finish to the knife. I bought a pair of those beads back when and put the other on my Shiro F3 Python when I first got them.

Completely new to this forum / knives in general.

Are lanyards purely aesthetic? Do they have a purpose? My soon to come Sebenza has a couple included and not sure what they are for...
 
Very useful in cases where you may have cold hands, are wearing gloves, or simply need a little more security when quickly deploying a folder from a pocket.
