Capt, On a order for a 26 or a 5-4 can't you substitue micarta for the stag and it is a no charge? Thanks. oldguy

I would hope so. I also feel that wrist thongs should be standard on every knife

It is swapable (?) but I'm not sure about an even swap. I think it is...if it is Randall shop-supplied stuff.
As far a wrist thongs go. Some like 'em and some hate em'..."BUT"...(I know...I know) it is a bit of work to drill, install the tubing ferrule and trim/polish etc. I think a charge is not out of line.
Hope this helps, Capt. Chris

I can understand if it is fruled but it seems much easier with the basic handles with aluminum butts

Of course I'm talking about the shop supplied micarta. Can you find out and let us know? oldguy

There is more work involved with the lanyards due to the aligning and drilling the holes. The process is harder than it looks. I'm sure the shop could make lanyards standard on the knives for a $20 price increase. oldguy

Yes: Shop supplied micarta is the asame price as stag on a #5-4...#8-4...etc.

Leatherman, for me I like the wrist thongs when I need it, but when I don't need one they are in the way. Maybe one day someone will come up with a retractable lanyard that stores in the handle.

Maybe a quick detach wrist thong, like a QD sling swivel attachment for rifles???
