??? Time to invest in a lanyard ???   
That is the kicker.  I had just removed it because it was frayed bad.  Before I got a new one on, it disappeared.  <img src="/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />  My current EDC is a Spyderco 93mm Rescue.  It is a little much for EDC but it is the only one I have.
BTW I have a loop on this knife!  I have had it for many years now.
