This is where I like to put them:

On the blue Mel Pardue knife, your lanyard is attached to thr pocket clip. Just FYI, that's illegal in CA!

Probably causes cancer there too.

I pulled out a knife I haven't carried in a long time and showed it some love with an edge touch-up and a fresh lanyard featuring a Crook Customs bead that has sat unused since I picked it up early last Spring.

To me, a lanyard is cord or lace that can be quickly undone and a couple of feet, or more. Short stuff are fobs, imho.

You can move your lanyard easily, from clip to clip. This Whiskers II does have a spot for a camera like lanyard but as a favorite longer lace, I can move it from knife to knife

The eagle, much carried, has leather, as a lot of my knives. A lanyard

The 'fob' lanyard on the SAK is actually a full length pistol lanyard, woven up with a fist and the smaller one, a cut off from another of those, a fob
The SAK lanyard is on a clip, so independant

No new tails for a while, but I had my Arius on me for three days straight and had this pic left over, so....

Funny that you posted here. I was just thinking to myself yesterday that their hasn't been much action here in a while. I even opened the thread to make sure I didn't miss something. Nice pic!

Thanks, Phil. It's not high-traffic here, but still worth checking out and adding a tail or two from time-to-time. I always like seeing what you're up to, too

horseclover , nice to see your Eagle LW here with that leather pull. I've got both the LW and an HD but carry them clipped. I assume you carry yours without just in the bottom of your pocket. I've always wished I could add tails to mine without sacrificing their clips. I've also got a pair of more traditional Al Mar Talons--Cocobolo Eagle and Polished Linen Micarta Falcon--with lanyard holes, but they're desk knives that live in their leather slips in the drawing board pencil tray. There's not much sense in adding pulls to those.

As shown, the Whisper just has the 'fob' on the clip itself. Most clips have enough space, at their apex, Just push the clip past the cord/leather loop. I still have the clip hardware and box for the eagle.
