Randall? Did somebody say Randall?
I only have one left. But I only carry it when I put on my pants.
Model 5, 4" stag.
I bought it as a birthday present for Warlock. When he 'went west' it came back.
Later, the 'Mustache' talked me out of it. He later traded it and a few Franklins for a Colt's Woodsman I had. He slipped away last March, to a place where the single malt bottle is never empty and there's never a shortage of ammo.
I wear it every day.
Now I must go. If anyone is looking for me, I'll be getting myself around some brown liquid.
I wish you all a great whatever holiday you care to celebrate.
To absent friends.

Well, sort of. The Randall shop says they've never made a folding knife. But back right after Bo Randall passed away, they investigated the idea of supplying a folder. They apparently supplied some of the better custom knife makers with blad blanks, asking them to produce some examples, with the idea being either a partnership kind of arrangement (talk about status, being in business with Randall!). Anyway, the program never moved forward. Some of the blanks have surfaced as folding knives over the years. One of them hides in a tub of other knives in my basement.
Its a fast opening folder, having a nub on the other end of the blade. Its a liner lock with an open frame. A buddy has the other one that I've seen. They both have elephant ivory scales (the selling job on us 20 years ago was it was antique ivory from the 1920s.)
Two folders also sold out of the Blue Ridge auction about 15 or so years ago. Those had black composite (or maybe ebony, I don't know) and sold for $2500 back then.
