No lanyard hole?

Is it really that big of a deal to put a lanyard hole somewhere on a knife? I can't use the barrel spacers, because the blade edge will contact the paracord. I know this is a lefty clip mount, but now it's a lanyard loop. This knife would be absolutely perfect if it weren't for the complete lack of an attachment point. I don't get why they are going out of style, if you don't use the lanyard hole, then don't use it, but don't remove the option for people who do use them.

Funny, I was just thinking the same as I looked at my osbourne very disappointed I couldn't put my key on it.

Your key? Not gonna lie, if I only had one key, I probably would attach it to my knife so I didn't have to carry a separate keychain. 😆

I use a key that's on a rope as a lanyard for knives because I have them laying around. The keys don't unlock anything, they're just there for decoration

Honestly I thought you were being sarcastic, but that's pretty creative. I never thought about it before 😅 I have a couple beads I got from Lynch because I thought they looked cool, and they give you a little more to grab onto when trying to pull out your knife from an awkward position/ with bulky gloves on

Yeah I always get mine from a whiskey bottle so I have a load of them laying around figured, make my life easier and they look cool so two birds one stone, I'd attach a picture but I have no idea how

That's really cool, I'll have to try it sometime. I'm sure I have a few old keys I don't use anymore 👍
