Skip, a bible collection, wow that is cool. A 331 year old one, that is amazing.

Goldengrr, Cooking is always a good ol' standby. Nothing like creating a fine, delicious meal to sit down and savor the flavor.

Hey Ken, yeah I love those Randalls. I have a mint Model #14 Attack in the collection with the original sheath and wrap.


One of mine is a mint Model 2, Fighting Stiletto with original sheath and stone, circa 1965.

The other is one of the original Model 18, Attack & Survival, 7 1/2 in blade.  Back then there was a waterproof/watertight rubber butt cap on the hollow handle instead of the brass cap they have now.  I have the original sheath, but this knife was well used for practical purposes while in Vietnam ...while it is not "mint" it is not damaged (hey..it's a Randall).  The sheath is beat from water, heat, sweat, mildew, and a little blood ...and the knife has a great patina filled with memories.
