This is my Randall-Bowles Skinner etched #457. This guarded design dealer special features a 4-5/8 inch stainless steel blade forged from 1/4 inch stock. The single brass hilt is accentuated with Randall's iconic red, white and blue spacers. The traditional Randall stacked leather washer handle is very tuff and a favorite for a using knife. The handle is finished with a Duralumin butt cap and an exposed nut. I've made less than a dozen Skinners with this handle. The front of the unique two-tone Sullivan's sheath carries my Randall Made-Rick Bowles Special stamp on the toe and I've signed and dated the back. Please post "I'll take it" followed by a PM or email at [email protected]
