A 30 year hand in Galveston asked why I still tape my knife to my leg
I was gearing up on a dock in Galveston last month and a 30 year hand named Ray asked why I still tape my knife to my leg instead of running a lanyard off my harness. He pulled up his own rig and it was just a short bungee loop and a clip, and he said he stopped losing blades in the murk back in 2019 when he finally set it up right. Is the leg tape just a habit for most of you or do you actually trust a lanyard more?
