I drilled a "Wrist Thong" hole in a SOG "Tiger Shark" handle one time. Did it on a Bridgeport and actually drilled the hole in the handle close to the Hilt. I was using the "Tiger Shark" a lot for chopping chores and the thong in front of the hand allowed me to securely hold the knife without my hand grip getting tired and losing control of the blade. Having the thong located behind the hand would do nothing for what I was trying to accomplish.

That being said, would I ever attempt to drill a thong hole in a Randall knife, bridgeport mill or not, NEVER!
