No, don't do that. An elasticated lanyard on a knife is a remarkably stupid idea; when your hands are wet the knife will shoot back through your hand and cut it wide open. Use a bit of paracord for a lanyard.

Re: Mora / Frost knife
to fit a lanyard you need to drill a hole in the bottom of the knife (again, assuming it's a clipper model, not the "swedish army knife" version, which allready has a lanyard loop irrc). then tie some cord through the hole
before anyone starts: I am not a soldier, and never have been
I am not a cadet, and never have been
I currently have no intention to join the regular army (although I'm not ruling out TA)
I do have an interest in all things millitary (purely academic) and a deep respect for all those who have and do serve.
I say all of this now, in case of future waltish behaviour (I have previous in this regard)

I suppose there must be people who might manage that, but then they probably shouldn't have access to knives anyway.

It sounds like an old wives tale to encourage people to take care when using knives.
If using paracord you need somewhere to stow the line when the knife is sheathed.Apparently some moderators take themselves very, very seriously, and cannot abide posts such as:

Re: Mora / Frost knife
You have stuff on the outside of your kit to grab quickly ie an urgent need.
A knife on the outside screams nothing but nutter or saddo. Have a good knife, but keep it somewhere safe. You'd probably cut yourself anyway.

You mean they're not supposed to be mounted upside-down on the yoke strap ?

Nah, this is more like it:
