I see some fixed-blade knives have a lanyard. Some lanyards are loops, and some are braided. I have never used a knife that has a lanyard. (My flashlight, yes, but not a knife.)
What is the benefit and drawback of having a lanyard? Is it for show, or is there a function that it performs? Is there a benefit to having a braided lanyard instead of a loop? (Perhaps less likely to catch on something and be pulled from the sheath?)
Thanks for your insight.
