a couple of my diy hunters with 50" and 80" cord in cobra/Solomon weave FOBs.
these were pass through loops in the lanyard holes so they can be easly moved to other knifes.

Good job!

I like the removable idea best.

Thanks RP, also like the removeable loop idea.
It's just some folders don't have large enough lanyard holes to get two cords through.

Nice work, I may have to give it a try.

Seems like a handy way to have some extra cord around, that a guy could use if needed.

Thanks Brad. Yes it is..
Most of the above are not quick deploy (QD).
The QD feature has to be designed in from the start.
But once you've completed a non-QD, it gives you an idea on how to unravel that one, at least which end to start with.

My gun club buddy wanted this lanyard on his new Kershaw 1660,
a slick/solid Ken Onion frame lock design, spring assist:



note the clever blade tip lock (lower left) to ensure the blade stays tucked away when riding in a pocket.

this has 30" blue and 36" black, crown sinnet with diamond knot on end. Its a Kershaw Link, made in USA.
this spring assist folder feels real good in the hand, solid and balanced.



here's the pair, one for the g-kid & one for me.

Here's an inexpensive liner lock plus can opener tool with three lanyard/fobs, each ending with a 4 strand Walker knot.
Got the knife from: S&W knife 8Cr13MoV stainless steel blade


the walker is sometimes frustrating to finish off, I found this link to Walker knot helpful.

rest is TMI, unless you're interested in this kind of stuff:
-------------------------------------------------------
Here's what the end of a 4 strand walker knot looks like compared to a diamond/wall/footrope knot just below:
can see how the 4 walker strands are spread near the circumference while the other 4 are tightly centered.



and that's on the end of this GT keyring fob:
