Eckhardt's Lab - "This Is Lara!" Achievement/Trophy

Enter the laboratory, quick-save, then pull the lever near the dangling cage.

This opens the grate below the dangling cage...

...as well as the trapdoor at the top of the ladder near the entrance.

It also spawns 2 undead knights (1-2) on the raised dais behind you. The pit below the cage contains boiling water. So take care not to fall in as you fight the knights, or Lara will be killed instantly.

As usual, you can knock each knight down twice, using guns or melee attacks, to destroy them permanently. But, if you're after the achievement/trophy "This Is Lara!", you'll need to send them both into the pit below the cage. (I believe you can also knock them into the circular pool in the next room, but I have not tried this.)

I found it helpful to move around to the opposite side of the pit from the lever, since there's more room to maneuver here.

Once you've lured the knights over to this side of the room, position Lara close to the edge of the pit.

Wait for one of them to move in behind you.

Backflip to position the knight between Lara and the pit.

Then use melee attacks to knock him back until he falls in.

Repeat for the second knight. Stand near the pit facing it. Wait for the knight to come up behind you.

Backflip over him.

Then kick/punch him repeatedly...

...until he falls in.

These are the last two knights (16-17/17) in the game. If you've knocked them all into pits, the achievement/trophy will unlock here.

There are a few additional notes/tips in the main walkthrough.
