If it goes around something, like my wrist or neck, to keep from dropping a knife, then I use a lanyard.
If I want a braided thing that is grasped, then I use a fob.
Therein lies the problem Marci, most people don’t know the difference or when to use which. There’s nothing wrong with using either if that’s your choice.
Two other uses for them is as a gear tie down, I use ‘em to strap some of my fixed blades to packs, on my tractor and even on my canoe.
I use a bright, reflective, fluorescent orange with a glow in the dark thread or paracord in the braid as a way to make it easier to find a knife lost or dropped in the woods.
Kudos to you Marci for not giving into the trends and using both, even if it makes you look like a knife kneophyte. Just kiddin’, I just wanted to pick on you a little.
never fear that your CRK can take a header and be just fine.
Ain’t it the truth? I was paranoid and terrified at the same time when I got my first Sebenza. I checked my pocket obsessively for the first couple of months, (I still do). I’d do the pocket tap to make sure it was where it was supposed to be.
It was actually less obvious when I checked it because of the fob on the end I’d just tickle it as I swept my hand by and you’d never know I was an FTSO/OCD (First Time Sebenza Owner with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder)
Now, nothing is more exciting than a new a Sebenza and by new I mean one I haven’t owned before.
The only other thing that is comparable is the feeling of a oft used and well cared for Sebenza.
What’s the word Sebenza mean? Doesn’t it mean work? To not use a Sebenza is a crime, they were meant to be used and worked.
That said, I opted to make a pocket sheath for it as I didnt want to risk losing it.
I did the same thing for both my small 21s, it was way more satisfying than buying one.
