Thanks to all who have posted thus far. This week we will be looking at the Model 10, now called the Model 10 Salt Fisherman and Household Utility. It's a great knife for fishermen.

From Randall Made Knives: The History of the Man and the Blades pp. 118-119

Quote:

---

The Salt Fisherman and Household Utility made its appearance in the 1948 catalog and was the first standard model Randall made without a forged blade. It was made by what is called the stock-removal process, i.e., hand-ground from a piece of flat steel.... The postwar lineup of new knives had been lacking a replacement for the old one-piece, stainless steel fish knife, or Fish and Bar if there was a bottle opener ground into the back. Florida's many saltwater anglers liked the idea of a rustproof knife in their tackle box.

...Like all Randall designs, this knife had to be able to accomplish the intended tasks while holding up well under severe use. This included the handle as well as the blade. Leather doesn't last well when constantly soaked in saltwater, and for this knife, the handle should be two slabs riveted to a full-width tang. The grip also had to be as slip-proof as possible, even when held in wet, slimy hands. The final answer was to rivet duralumin pieces to the tang, grind them to shape, and then sandblast only the handle.

This left a rough, nonslip surface, which has worked fine ever since. Even modern dishwashers can't hurt this handle a bit. Just when the design jelled and became a standard isn't known, but the St. Petersburg man's fillet knife was shipped to him on 11 May 1948. With a shorter blade this became an excellent bait cutter and all-around tackle box knife. To answer both demands, the 1948 catalog listed it as available with either a 5- or 7-inch blade.

Lady and gentlemen may we please see some Model 10's.
Thank you,
Kevin #5109

A couple current model 10's...

.

Here's a little older one, just got it after Thanks Giving, too late to hit the bird but xmas is coming...this is my first 10-7, I actually would've liked a new one but this one already had some scratches, use and didn't cost that much more, therefore also a guarantee it would stay in the kitchen and not end up in the safe. Can't say how many times I've bought a new Randall over the years with the intention of using it and never did, I'm sure I'm not alone out there. The blade is thicker and not flimsey like it may first appear(hope no one at the shop reads this), I still have new ones on order and wouldn't want them to mysteriously disappear, but when you think 1/8 inch, it even sounds so thin, my mistake, a very solid knife, I can only thank my ignorance for not checking them out sooner.

Rob

Flip side...

Here's my #10-3".
Older style blade and cool sheath.
I acquired it from a fellow member...
Hey tune, I'm taking good care of it!
Tony

Here is my 10-3 stag!

Rob, It'll be fun to use it at the table. Here's hoping you get many years of carving out of it.

Tony, What a great idea! I like those little fish.

Burnie, Where in the world did you find one in stag? Stoddard's was finding out if I could order one like that when things went south and no orders were submitted.

All are nice pics in my opinion...
~dale

Dale I can't give up my source, but he has had the knife for a year or more! I finally talked him out of it. Maybe you'll own it next when I'm through playing with it. Later Burnie

This is a good place for this one

Thanks Dale. Those little fish are candies called
Sweedish Fish. I have no idea where the name comes from!
Tony

Perry had a nice one in stag:

These are some miscellaneous notes that I’ve put together on the Model #10 series of knives – I haven’t done any additional research recently, so if you guys can help fill in the blanks here, or help narrow down some of the timeframes, I’d sure appreciate it: Introduced in 1948 as one of the first ‘Stock Removal’ knives made by Bo Randall, this slab-sided model is probably the only Randall knife model configured using this handle style, other than a few ‘special order’ knives made over the years, and the ‘Drop Point Hunter’ series of the late 1970’s & early 1980’s.

Traditionally made from stainless steel, no specific stainless ‘S’ indication was used on Randall Model #10’s prior to the mid 1970’s. Use of the ‘Integral S’ blade stamp on Model #10’s began sometime after 1974, but before 1979. Use of the angled blade stamp orientation on Model #10 knives began sometime in 1979. Originally made from 440B type stainless steel using the stock removal process, by early 1996, ATS-34 stainless steel was in regular production use for this RMK model.

Two handle pins and a lanyard hole on the 5” and 7” models indicates 440B steel; three handle pins and a lanyard hole on those models indicates ATS-34. The 3” model uses one pin for 440B steel knives, two pins for the ATS-34 versions. Collectors should bear in mind, however, that prior to the lanyard hole introduction in early 1988, three pins were standard for larger Model #10 knives, indicating 440B type steel; and, while ATS-34 is now in regular use on many of the smaller RMK stock removal models, its use is only specifically indicated as such on the Model #10 knives.

Micarta was an option on this model as early as 1964, although didn’t get much attention until later in the decade. Micarta became the standard handle material offered in the late 1980’s; at about the same time lanyard holes were introduced. Rosewood handle material had become a cataloged option for this model by 1974, as had Maroon Micarta. Today, if requested, both Rosewood and Aluminum handle scales are still available at no additional cost. (DW, is this still true?)

Standard configurations have traditionally used 5” and 7” blades, but a limited run of 4” models was also made during the late 1980’s. The earliest 4” blades used a traditional blade grind, with a drop point version soon following. The 3” version of this knife become available in 1984 with standard Model #10 type handles and Johnson ‘B’ model sheath; taking on its current contoured black Micarta handle shape in 1989. Variants with the then optional drop-point blade grind and pouch style sheath type were being delivered by 1991; this new blade grind and sheath type would soon become the standard for the model.

Handle materials have ranged from the standard catalog offerings to unusual shop supplied materials such as stag in the mid 1970’s and late 1980’s, and customer supplied materials such as the poly pearl and exotic wood handles that Randall dealer Jack Crider was noted for. Handle shapes have evolved over the years as well, the earliest aluminum handles had thumb notches. The Model #10 has also been used extensively as an experimentation platform; swedged false-edges, double-edged, and sawtoothed configurations have all been seen, along with the use of hilts on a limited number of knives.

With regards to the age of any specific knife, in addition to the various blade grinds, steel type, and handle configurations - the sheath type, provided that it’s original to the knife, can also help approximate the date of manufacture. In the meantime, keep posting photos of your Model #10’s, and...if you don’t already have a hard copy of Rhett’s 1991 Randall ‘Green Catalog’, or a copy of the Intersquare Randall Information CD where it is also shown, I’d recommend that you get one, as it’s chock full of interesting and odd-ball Model #10 variants...

1950's model 10-7....

model 10-7....

Does anyone know how many stag grip model 10's came out of the shop??

Here'r two pics about one of my favorites RMK:
first one is with JCS also, as I consider it a Mod.10 special:

This model #10-3 "Chick Knife" belongs to one of our forumites. He bought it for his wife who happens to be named Robin!

SUPERCUTE....
GUIDO

Some new ones! 5" and 7" in red Micarta.

If one was to order a #10 today, what options would be available?

Mike,
We can answer the Model #10 ordering questions in the "Randall ordering" thread pinned to the top of this forum's first page. That way, everyone gets to read it and it may answer the same questions for more folks. Please, if you will, post your question there and I'll take a stab at it. In the meantime, here's a #10-3", for the occasion when I need to explore my "feminine side"...whatever that may mean.
Best, Capt. Chris

This is a Model #10-3", "DP" (drop point) with customer-supplied (me) pink maple burl. I had Greg make me up an "oxblood" pouch sheath to go with it.
Best, Capt. Chris

Any "Gator" fans out there?
Best, Capt. Chris

O.K.:
How about "Auburn"?
Best, Capt. Chris

Either way:
This Model #10-3" is for "you"!!

OOPPS! ... I miss-spoke! Good Night All!

It's past my bed time but we had tornado warnings going off and Thunder and lightening big time my back yard has about 5" of standing water. Wow this one is a doosy! I like model 10's, just thought I'd add some Randall content to my post.

Beautiful Ceramics ... AND ...a well designed web site!
BRAVO!

Guido,

I can't say it any better than the others. Wonderful website and of course your model 10's too!

Best,

I have to give everyone the "disclaimer"...You can order the blue G-10 installed on your #10-3" from the shop, providing you supply it. You can order the orange G-10 installed on your #10-3" from the shop, providing you supply it. You "CANNOT" order both on the same knife. I had this done "after-the-fact"!!!
OK: Disclaimer posted!! "DON'T" try and order this knife from the Randall shop!! (From the Captain Chris Department of Redundancy Dept.)
Best, Capt. Chris

I have not posted my model 10's before, so here they are
Model 10, 7 inch rosewood, 5 inch black micarta wood, and 3 inch black micarta wood

Peter

Very nice model tens. I picked up a few from the shop when there wasn't too long of wait.

These are for "TTB"!!
Best, Capt. Chris

Nice knives Peter and Chris.
Thanks for taking the time to post on my The Knife Of The Week thread.

Kevin

Ron...
Interesting 10-3, especially the name on the sheath "John Gay"...is this the same John Gay that fought in the 'Battle of Mogadishu'? You didn't by chance wind up with his Model #15, that was shattered by an AK-47 round did you ?

http://www.knifetalkforums.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=32105&page=2[/url]

Some 10-3 action! - Rob

Some very brightly handled Model 10s Rob.
Thanks for taking the time to post on my Knife Of The Week thread.

Kevin

Here's a "New, Unused, Unopened" Model 10/ Rosewood I just got.

The blade has some sharpening marks near the hilt and tip that look like it's been lightly used.

Also, the sheath looks like it has some stains on it.

I never meet a Randall I didn't like. The price wasn't too bad and since it'll be a user anyway, I'm a Happy Owner.
Do the Rosewood handles not have a lanyard loop? Most of the others I've seen online seem all have one...and this one doesn't.

Looks like a good general worker that'll do great at slicing and dicing. A Randall "Kitchen Magician"???

At the time this old Model #10-7" was made wrist thongs were not standard. It's got about 30 years on it (or better...cannot tell from the photos). The old Johnson roughback sheath helps to date it.
Nice knife...Best, Capt. Chris

"It's got about 30 years on it"

Here's the sales description on "Ebay" of my latest Model 10:
" This is a new never used Randall Model 10 Saltwater fisherman knife. The knife has a 7" blade and comes with it's orginal sheath. Be sure and see my others auctions running this week. Good Luck!!!"

Let it serve as a good warning of what's happening there.

I believe my price was reasonable, but if it's truly 30 years old, it's a very well seasoned and lightly used old Randall. But nowhere close to "New, Never Used".


Buyer Beware?
Damn straight!

Model 10-5, original Randall Sheath ( I hope) Black Micarta Handle. At least this one was described correctly as "Used with some Handling Marks". It looks like it was cared for well whatever use it saw.
Will be a Kitchen worker along with it's 7" Older Rosewood Brother.

Capt,
Here's one that could use some dating...
One of my dad's old knives.
:-)R

Brown Micarta?
No thong hole?
Stainless or not?
Looks like an oldie, but goodie!

I'm guessing Johnson sheath, with out seeing the back of it. Heiser was almost history by this time, but it could be a Heiser. Stainless steel blade (Pre "S" trademark stamp on those Model #10-s) I would venture late 50's or early 60's. I believe the micarta is black and just showing it's age. Best I can do with the photos presented and, of course, not having the combination in front of me. There will be some more pipe up with an opinion, I'm sure.
The split loop, on the front, under the handle may have the maker's name. It could say "Heiser and have the "10" for model and the "5" for blade length in seperate locations, above and below the split loops.
Best, Capt. Chris

Capt,
Your dead on with the sheath....Johnson
The Micarta looks black to me, just as you say, aged.
Thanks
:-)Rocky

Thanks Rocky,
If the sheath is a Johnson then that puts the knife towards my later dates, i.e. 1963-65 "ish". I don't know exactly when the shop went with an "s" stamp on these blades, but I believe the first Johnson sheaths (More correctly: Maurice Johnson) showed up around 1962-63.
Best, Capt. Chris

Capt,
Thanks for the info!!
It's one that has been bothering me for a while, just never took the time to post it up.
He had a few, this one's never been used....don't know why, he was never bashful about using any of his Randall's. Maybe he just never got around to it, or maybe he liked the aluminium handle better he sure used those. I remember as a kid, we had one in the kitchen. He had broken the blade on it and sent it back to the shop, and they re ground it. I guess it started out life as a 7"...ended up as maybe a 41/2".
Thanks again
:-)Rocky

Here's another older one. This is one of the few coming out of the shop with stag handles.

Rocky..Got pix of the "Rare-Custom Grind" 4 1/2 Model 10?
Or consider it a 3" on Viagra!

No...it's long gone
My folks loose a lot of stuff, and that was 45 or so years ago.
As I remember it did not look right after that, however it was a good kitchen worker.
:-)Rocky

I have a 4 1/2" and a 3 1/2" Model #10. Actually I own "3", 4 1/2 or 5" Model #10's with "drop points. Perry got my 4" drop point. I'll have to find another one someday. I'll post some photos, after I take them tomorrow....After coffee. I just am not up to diggin' all of that "nostalgia" up tonight. I do think I can find one Dave sold me at the shop/ Mid to late 80's. It is old green canvas with a special "Griffin Grip" (That's what David called it). It has 2 sets of thumb notches and is far thicker handle material than the norm. The brown-stiched sheath was special ordered from Greg in the early 90's.
Best, Capt. Chris

Nice but very different :-)

Whoa! That's pretty cool!
Tony

Capt'N...

It almost looks like a modified hybrid between the Crider Special and a Regular Mdl 10.
Add sawteeth to the top and you'd close at it very closely to see make sure it wasn't a JCS.

What a great collector find!

Doc,
It wasn't a find. Dave made it up for me, back in the day when this was not terribly uncommon. Truth is: The Crider special is a Model #10, either 5" or 7" with some special bevel sharpening and "C" sheaths. Sometimes even sawteeth. This knife has 3/8" handle stock.
Best, Capt. Chris

"There were a very few of these knives made in the early 60's with stag handle. The exact number is unknown."
...as Perry stated.

The #10-3" was made for RMK employes only.

MY "FIRST" altered RMK done here by Roberto Bernini(aka: the Italian Randall)

BEAUTIFUL MODEL 10s, Guido!
The stag give that knife a whole new look ... very classy!
Grazie,
Tony

That looks more like "Crackle Mammoth" to me?? Guido: What say you? Here's one that sold last week from my website in "Crackle".
Best, Capt. Chris

Mammouth bark....

PS:...Capt. please show the "other one" you sold too

10-4 Guido. I'll post it under a "Triathelete" post...
Best, Capt. Chris

hops!.....my fault Capt.

Here's my first #10-3" with standard Drop Point blade grind and Red Micarta handles:

My Model 10-3:

That looks like it would be a great EDC.

After seeing Ken's and Mick's knives, I'm really liking the red micarta for a #10-3.

I just received this matched pair from Capt. Chris with this ironwood colored micarta (really just brown micarta) that I supplied.
Both are great jobs from the shop and both have left hand sheaths.
I wanted something a bit different and they look great.
Peter

They came out great Peter. Glad you like 'em.
Best, Capt. Chris

Nice set! They look great!

WHAT????????? ... NO IRONWOOD????????? !


Nice matching pair peter!
Tony

Nice looking 10's and I love those pouch sheaths.

Pap

Great looking knives Peter. Brown canvas micarta is my favorite. Thanks for sharing.

Adding my Model #10-3" to the Knife Of The Week Thread...it's just a basic 10-3", what's kinda' unusual is the piece of the Flight Deck from the USS Yorktown the 10-3 is resting on.

That decking material needs to be a Randall handle (or 2).
Nice #10, Capt. Chris

I think that would be a great way to honor a Grand Old Lady.

Thanks guy's...that thought did cross my mind, the decking on an Aircraft Carrier is made from Spruce.

Very cool, Rex.
Nice photo too!
Tony

I need to correct myself here, the decking material for the flight deck of the USS YORKTOWN CV-10..is not Spruce, but is in fact Douglas Fir.

Great idea....just enough teak on the blocks for #10 slabs.

Douglas Fir base-wood (to "cushion" the landing) topped with Teak (for strength and durability).

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Yorktown_(CV-10)

Wow!
Thanks for sharing.

Very nice Doug.

Hello everyone ...
I just bought, used, this Randall 10-3, "which will be my knife for everyday use ...
I would like to have information about it, year of construction, steel used, etc. ....
thanks in advance,

Doug,Daniele.
Thanks for showing your 10's,I am abig fan of the 10-5.
I just received two new ones from the Captain.Wish had the equipment skill and ability to post pictures but it ain't
gonna happen.Been told by two people I respect tha I need some
10-3's.

New Arrival, Thanks to Rob at LHGK, 10-3 in Brown Micarta and it looks like a possible roughback sheath.
What a little pre-owned cutie....any idea how old it might be? Arrived as described with a few "character marks" showing it was actually used some.
The model 10's are growing on me. PS: I-Phone 4s takes really good shots!


10-5 Black Micarta



10-7 Oldie, Rosewood

Not a roughback #10-3", but they usually have an unfinished side, occuring from the leather being folded. This leaves the unfinished side exposed. The "pouch" sheaths were started, pretty much, after the Johnson era, as were the "drop points". There is, more than likely, some crossover timing, but your knife (Fl. Blade stamp) and a tan pouch is screaming early 90's to me. Hope this helps.
Best, capt. Chris

Capt'N..Thanks for the info..appreciated Greatly as usual.
As I mentioned..I think these older Randalls' have a lot of personality. I've got a new 10-3 inbound, I'll see how it compares..don't even know if it'll be a drop-point or look like its' bigger brothers.

10-5 Oldie, Black Micarta.

Just arrived 10-3 in Black Micarta/ Looks like Nickel-Silver Pins, Lanyard liner.
Scary Sharp. I'm glad it came in a drop point rather than the usual kitchen knife profile of its' bigger brothers.

Quick Question:

A Model 10 with a 4" blade would be a great steak knife...food paring/prep blade size.

The 3" seems a little small...the 5" in a public place would look scary and could get you arrested, and a 7" is out of the question, except for the Chef in the Kitchen.

But a 4" Mdl 10 would be just right to politely take apart a nice steak, roast, whatever, in a public eatery!

Anyone ever try to get one thru the store?

I do agree 100% Dr.Shame !

Model #10-4" were available back in the 1980's for a short time. Most had a drop point and were less-than-attractive, due to that blunt, bull-nosed, drop point.
Best, Capt. Chris
PS: Consider a "GTR"...CCS

How about a #6-4.5" Steak Knife.

I have 2 very happy children this year--both my 19 year old daughter and 16 year old son received #10-3s for Christmas. My wife and I are blessed with two pretty great kids so giving them "keep forever" gifts was not a hard decision, and they look good with my own #10-3, too. Great job on these knives at the Randall shop!

Wow, never seen so many great looking #10-3's, and I don't even own one!! Could be my next order!! Super great pics and all the best to you and your family on 2012, Duke.

Pap

Lucky Kids!
Hope they appreciate them..
I'm sure Dad will be keeping a close watch on them!

Thanks Pap & Doc! They've both been well trained with knives and guns--gifts for each on 5th birthdays were Swiss Army knives; each started hunting with me on 8th-daughter with camera and son with gun. She has taken hundreds of great photos 'cause her rule was I "couldn't kill nothing"-although she nows shoots the .357 Sig Glock best and this #10-3 will replace her purse EDC-Benchmade.
I've really started liking it for many-day-carries, too.
You can't start good training too young!

Great gifts Duke.

Very Nice Duke!

Hey team – I picked up a #10-5 a few months ago and have really enjoyed using the knife. Between the mini-hatchet and the #10-5, I was good-to-go on a recent hiking trip on the SC Foothills Trail near Lake Jocassee. It’s accompanied me on several fishing trips and after a good cleaning makes for a killer kitchen knife! My wife even asks for the knife when cutting the tomatoes, zucchini, squash, and cucumbers coming out of the garden. Great knife, thanks RMK. Have a good week guys, Jay

Cool combo! Looks like a Gransfors Bruks mini.

Nice #10 Jay.
Ours has a permanent home in our kitchen!

A Rocky Mountain Randall Model 10-3"

I sent a Randall Knife Model #10-3 to James Behring Jr. in Missoula Montana. I told him to re-handle it..and make it something special. Well...he did he added the amber Sambar stag tine for a handle...a copper hilt..a few extra thumb notches.. and a small copper spacer stack, and best of all he put a CHOIL on the blade !

Wow I really like that. Amazing job! He does outstanding work. Congratulations on a really cool knife.

Sweeeeeeet!! Gonna be awful tough to not keep that little jewel on your belt for your EDC, Rex.

Rex
Great looking model 10, James did a great job and you have something really unique.
Did you get a new sheath with it?
Peter

Great knife..... it's amazing how much the choil changes the lines on that knife.

Very cool......

Thanks Guy's for the comment's....I think we can all agree that James' work is world class...and he's a pretty special person also.

Hi friends!
Recently I bought a knife Randall 10-5, I was interested in what he made the year and from which steel. The seller does not know. Who will be able to help with advice?

scabbard is not original

I measured the hardness of my #10-5 in 4 points - two points about the hilt and two points on the tip of the blade.
Hardness was 53-54 Rockwell. This is what need for utilitarian knife

Hello friends!
Today I saw on Ebay item http://www.ebay.com/itm/161040188192
And then I realized that something was not right. In my knife.
The tip I have is too thick.
Leads to tip too thick. Must be a convex lens.
I came to the conclusion that my knife was broken off and reground previous owner something like this:

here's my tip on the scanner


normal tip side

and top


I still love my Randall.
I him very keenly sharpened and always use

Desert.Snake,
These are hand made knives, and not always the same. I'm not the pro here, BUT...I think that your knife looks fine. Maybe it's a bit older than the ones that you are looking at. Grinds tend to change from time to time.
nice knife!!
:-)Rocky

Desert Snake,
What Rocky told you is correct.I have a fair share of 10-5'sand 10-3's-Not fond of 10-7.There is a slight difference in them all.
Just received from the Captain last week 2 more 10-5 and 10-3.
You have a nice 10-5.

Three red #10s.

- Buckspen

Beauty!
The color is very similar to the vermilion on the fountain pen
http://www.nibs.com/NakayaLongUnpolishedShu.html

Three oddball #10s.

I wonder why the 3" looks more finished with the rounding of the top of the handle. Any 5 or 7's out there with out the square edge? I've seen em but not lately.

The #10, in all sizes, has potential for daily use in our home. I frequently wear the rosewood 10-3 around the house because it's not too big to be uncomfortable or in the way and perfect size to handle most daily chores that tend to pop up. My H.S.Senior son wears a red micarta one on weekends because it's his and he can. One just like it helps my daughter with horses almost every day and my wife took the 7" and claimed it as hers in/for her kitchen.

Great knives to use!

Here's one...

Rob

Newly acquired "Clemson Tiger" model 10-7. Could not pass up the orange scales... Hope everyone is having a good week,

You will not have a hard time finding that knife...

You might in Clemson cause Everything is Orange there!

Nice one Jay!

Small replenishment
#10-7 without a sheath.
Bought yesterday.
More detailed photos will be when I get it in the mail.
I wonder what it is the year of production?

That's my knife, and I have not received your payment.
please pay me so I can ship

:-)Rocky

I wrote, I will send the money tomorrow morning))
My bank has to pay me tonight.
He had to do it yesterday.
I spoke with the manager - computer crashes.

Well, then you can say exactly what he production year
I guess about 1955-65 years, but not exactly sure.

I would not know for sure, but I would suppose that it was in their kitchen for quite some time. There were very few knives in this collection that were recently made. Most of his stuff was from the mid to late 50's into the 60's.
I'm sure there are others that could speculate with a bit more authority than myself.
:-)Rocky

Rocky, I sent you a payment a few minutes ago.
You can send. Just noticed that we have different time zones.
My time now 8.24 am, the difference is 7 hours between ourselves

Look, the same cut-out fingers on the handle of the knife, as the report #32119 by Stephen RKS 5536, on the second page of this topic.
