  • Tool steel blade 3/8" stock
  • Lugged silver guard
  • Silver and black spacers
  • Beautiful ivory handle
  • Silver butt cap
  • Randall Made Knives padded storage pouch, no sheath
  • Dates to between 1969 and the late 1970's, excellent condition (there are light scratches and stains on the blade, and a single scratch through the guard, spacers, and into the handle)
  • Due to the quality of fit, finish, and assembly of this knife, as well as the silver fittings and ivory handle, this knife was likely assembled by well-known Randall Knives Kit builder TOMMY BISH. He was known for soldering the guards in a similar manner as RMK, and built Kit knives well into the late 1970's, even though Randall Knives stopped offering Kit knives in 1974.
