Here are the two Randall knives that I acquired a few years back. Was on the hunt for one of each for a while and was able to bring home both.
First one is the Model 25 Trapper

Second one is the Model 26 Pathfinder


Let's see what you have. Post your Randall Made knives.

enjoy,

I have a few that I really like. I have a couple of Model 25 Trappers.

I also really like the Model 5 Camp and Trail.

Both of these patterns are what I would call perfect for good "usin'" knives. The bottom Model 5-6 with the compass in the handle is what used to be called the "Bradford Angier knife," patterned after the one Angier ordered from Randall.

I have a couple of other Randall knives, but these two patterns are probably my favorite and one or the other most often finds its way into my day pack or on my belt when at deer camp or elk camp.

I have a few.

They kind of multiply. They are currently out to a six year wait. And the secondary market prices are going up on them.

My Bird & Trout has been used the most, followed by my Model 23.

Currently my favs are my #23 and a Yukon Skinner (#21?). The leather handle on the #23 was eaten by a Utah porcupine and replaced with buffalo horn. Both the #8 and the #23 have done several elk, a few deer and a lot of wild pig.
 
All good looking pieces of craftsmanship. Except for a little Laguiole pocket folder I picked up in France and carry daily, I've never been much of a knife fan. After seeing these beauties, I may have to rethink that position.
Good shootin',
Doug
 
I have an Astro. Which was already used when I got it. I've carried it quite a bit and like it a lot. It's stainless guard is a nice touch and not available on any other models. This is the knife designed by Gordon Cooper and used in space.

I let my son pick his own he chose a model 27 Trailblazer my daughter wasn't interested I ordered her a 25 Trapper like yours. It's a beautiful knife.
 
These two are mine keepers and users both patina-Ed in onions. So I wouldn't be hesitant to use them. The smaller is a model 21 Little game the larger a model 19 Bushmaster. Both bought as rewards for two separate career milestones. Bought a year apart but look like a matched set. They really compliment each other well. One is thin and slicey the other beefy and stout for heavy cutting.
