Maxim...interesting little knife.  Is that a locally made knife.  Looks like it could be very useful for after the shot work.

Well OTTO some people may not have the big coin to pay for a randall. So some have to get by with a less costly knife.Gotta make due with what ya can afford. BTW ya do have some awesome knives.<><

Sorry for the confucsion I may have caused...

I hate CHEAP knives.  That's different from INEXPENSIVE!!!!  And there's nothing wrong with a good inexpensive knife.  Perfect example...There's a lot of deer been dressed with $29.95 Buck 110's.

this is my new favourite knife; I have wanted a Grohmann #1 for years. I was presented with it after the deerhunt that I hosted in Oct.
I have yet to dress some game with it but I love the simple lines, intuitive design and the way it balances in my hand.
A real nice knife and not hard to look at either! BD

Ooooh. I really like that Mattson blade, Stag. Lovely handle shape & finish.

That's it. I'm going down the workshop again! (Actually I need to, to finish a skinner for Dave N! Sorry for the delay Dave!)

The top one is the knife I currently carry in the woods.  The others are gifts for friends and family that I've recently finished.

Lets see...

Long history ("fighting knives" of WWII)
Handmade
You can pick many features, custom knife
High Quality
Expensive (although not too bad)
Limited quantity available (Randall will not sacrifice handmade methods or quality)
Long waiting list (5 years)

Due to above, the moment your knife arrives you can sell it for double on ebay.  There are a few distributors that have a ready, yet limited, supply of brand new Randall's but they too are priced about double the Randall catalog price.

Result:
The mystique continues....
Many of them never get used as knives but simply sit in collections

WILD RUSSIAN : I like that blade ! How well does it work ? I have a tail zipper like that , and it works great . I would think that little buger might work good . Maybe a 2nd finger ring , and a little longer blade ?    >>>------------->RIVERWOLF
