I loves that Ivorite material (or is that linen micarta?)
Seller I got mine from included a note that he has some legit ivory stocked randalls. Ivory is beautiful for the way it ages and patinas.

I am neither a general nor an ossifer.....had to find something to give scale to the blades as well compliment them. Scored that Colt a few years back, was made in 1911 with a S/N 108XXX. Sent it to US Armament (Colt no longer services this pistol) and they replaced all the springs and guts and improved the trigger. Great crew out there for sure. I have done nothing else to it other than shooting it. A little off topic but since when does a thread never go off topic here? Great looking blades members, keep 'em coming! Good luck and good shooting!

It's their Micarta "Ivorite" material. I purchased here from a fellow member.
What happened to the cock on the blade? Did Wagner love it?
Used it to cut some ribs and I think I licked it off.
Does that make me gay?
pmclaine you can sure get me to spend a lot of money!
I got the bug for a new blade after looking at this thread, couldn't swing a Randall but found a cool remake of the old Quartermaster knife from WWII... its on the way to my house.

It's refreshing to see one that has been actually used, that is what they are for!My Pop‘s big bro bought them matching Randalls back in the early fifties. I was fortunate to inherit my fathers. My lil bro has the matching one from the uncle.

I concur, I ordered mine early 70s with saw teeth and it was a plus and mostly minus.Also, for guys who are all giddy about sawteeth, the saw teeth were put in use around the Vietnam era to cut through the thin skin on a Huey, or so I’ve been told. I had a 14 with saw teeth and tried to use them, but since the teeth ARE NOT ground to the full depth of the width of the blade, they will only cut to the depth of the teeth. Don’t be thinking that you are going to saw through a sapling or anything. I’ve tried, doesn’t work. I sold that 14 when I came home from the Gulf. Figured I didn’t need two knives that were so similar. Huge mistake.
Man I’ve wanted a Randall for years. I’ll keep checking the used section maybe save some money, but that 25 in the new section sure is nice. Thank you for the link.Another good option to order knifes from is https://www.clintonknives.com/. He constantly places orders so can get whatever you want without the obscene lead times.
Great knives. Used my model 14 to stick 3 pigs while hunting in HI last year.

Just picked this one up at the local Pawn Shop for $225. It's a Model 16 with Boarder Patrol handle.
