So...Members,
We have a "stag" day. We have a "micarta" day. We have pairs-n-trios days". We have a "wood" day. We have a "fighter" day... What about the "rest"?
I can think of a couple (or thirty) RMKs that would fit this category...can't you? It will be interesting to find out, at least!
So...What think you? Here's an example to help us "Randallholics" fill the week.
Stay Sharp...All Y'ALL!
Capt. Chris
RMK "ALASKAN", handled in musk ox...

Leftovers..

Outstanding Mike...Here's a Model #4-6"/#6 blade grind in NASA G-10.
Best, Capt. Chris

mine doesn't say/isn't NASSA.....BUT....

:-)Rocky

I love leftovers!!

:-)Rocky

Michael
I like that spam can for sure.
What is the first sheath that has 2 belt slots? And how about the hatchet sheath?
Thanks
Walker

Some I do not post often. Not sure about them being leftover.

A recent #14 CDT w/Resin-Ivory S Grade,
I am very impressed with this material.
It is hard for me to photograph, showing the impressive quality.

looks nice!!

:-)Rocky

Here's an "oddball" in Brazilian Rosewood.
Best, Capt. Chris

Model 1 Gator shoulder rig

Great stuff showing up here; keep it going!

Tom Flynn

I think I have photos of that with a wooden handled Model #1 in it...Great rig, for sure! BTW members: Did anyone pick up on what was the "oddball" part of my #11-3"?
Just curious,
Capt. Chris

Number of spacers

Here's one to add. Like Rod.... Not sure about the Leftover thing...

7 spacers Black/Brass?

Tom Flynn

Good eye Tom....
Question, how does 7 Spacers happen with the newer Black & Brass?
I know the older knives had 7 spacers.
Seems like the "Poster" has some "Juice"......

Just like the "old days"...except more modern spacers..."&"...believe it or not, it was a shop mistake! I'll take 'em every time!
Thanks for responding U2.
Capt. Chris

That the 11 doesn't come in 3" flavor?

It's 3+ inches Rob. The "oddball" was the spacers...
C

The Cap has Super Juice!!!!!

Tom Flynn

Randall Tailors Knife

good addition!!

:-)Rocky

here is an RANDALL accessory - no sheath

Little Bear

Walker,
I believe the knife sheath is for a Model 20. And the hatchet sheath would be for an RMK hatchet (not sure which Model # head).
It's buried, or I would dig it out and see if Greg stamped anything on the back (I don't believe he did, IIRC).

Tom,
Any idea who added the butt cap, and coin?
Pretty cool

Greta stuff here!!!!

Not having access to my computer, I’ll have to join in later this week.

Tony

Tom,

That is nice love the Lil' Bear with Stag, butt plate and Liberty Gold Coin.

Tom Flynn

Thank you sir. You guys always have some treats that I have never seen!
Thanks for posting them.
Walker

Michael,
Have no idea who altered the butt and added the gold coin. I acquired the knife off Ebay in 2007 and at the time I knew enough about RMK's to know that the shop did not add the coin, but I thought it was interesting and got it anyway. It was a Buy Now not an Auction and I knew the coin was worth at least $200 at the time by itself.
A couple months later I was at the shop and everyone there was able to look at the knife, Gary, Scott and Jason. They all confirmed that the knife did not leave the shop that way nor was it altered by the shop. Gary informed me that the silver part that the coin is attached to was in fact fine silver and the spacer underneath was likely brass or similar. All agreed that the coin was probably attached with some sort of epoxy. Gary concluded by saying it appeared to be very good workmanship.
As it is today, the coin itself is worth close to $300. I think it is likely an older RMK that was cleaned up and modified because there is some very small pitting that was buffed out and there is some light scratching on the blade from either use or sharpening but all in all I think it is an interesting piece.

RMK Model #1-8" with solid silver lugged hilt, silver collar and perfect elephant ivory. Greg also made me an elephant sheath to wrap up this package.
Happy Sunday to all,
Capt. Chris

:-)Rocky

RMK Model #1-8" with FWI (Indian Artifact/Firestarter) handle and hide sheath from Greg.
Stay Sharp,
Capt. Chris

I'm not sure how many folks could have gotten that made through the shop....
the BEST I've had made....

:-)Rocky

FWI is "still" doable Rocky..just not elephant ivory...FYI
Stay Sharp, Capt. Chris

for sure....just try to find a piece that is as nice as what you illustrate, and the shop will accept!!
beautiful!!

:-)Rocky

Hubba Hubba!!

Pap

Very nice Cap!
Walker

A day late ...

Model 8 with buffalo horn.

...& after having to "pay" for that bad boy...A dollar "short"!
NICE,
Capt. Chris

Yes!
And Thanks Cap!

Model #2-5" in FWI (Indian artifact/fire bowl starter).
Stay Sharp, Capt. Chris

I like that!
Walker

Ivory handle scale replacement work, via Gene Beal!
Best, Capt. Chris

Previous owner was an Authorized Randall Dealer.

His name is etched on the other side.

I bought it at Blade Show 2022.

Love that tight Johnson stitching.

Got this from another Authorized Dealer at the Blade Show last year.

It started out as a Model 12-9"-#14 Grind, with the features shown, but I was told that a flaw in the blade near the point required shortening it to a Model 14 length.

Curiously enough, I was also told it's a "One-Of-A-Kind". In essence, a Model 14-CDT, NS2, FCH, ASP-blk, CW, #2, NSB, MC1.

The only one of it's kind, prior to the shop's policy change, regarding Norwegian blue spruce pine cone being accepted. This one is "Golden Pine Cone".
Model #10-5"
Happy Sunday all.
Stay Sharp, Capt. Chris

Captain,

You pine cone 10-5 is fantastic. Thanks for showing it.

Alan

I spoke to Scott, via text, this morning about this knife and I must be mistaken. The shop did not do this one...Sorry for the mix-up....(Now: The search begins for the one they "did do"...)
Best, Capt. Chris
PS: "Could" be this one...

Sunday Leftovers day:
Sergeants Model in Austrian flame maple burl.
Best, Capt. Chris

:-)Rocky

Nice FWI Rocky!
Thanks, Capt. Chris

Very nice gentlemen!

How about a Bearcamp in ivorite?

Nice.
Walker

Sunday Leftovers:
"&" a dating lesson...Made real easy:
I'll explain. Model #1-7" in the plain...brown wrapper (almost)> Tight-stitched Maurice Johnson roughback sheath...Butterfly-stitched...Baby dot snaps..Carbon steel blade (O1 Swedish tool steel) blade...Brass double hilt...Spacer-stock with a wide center spacer...Leather handle...Duralumin butt cap...Date it was made? 1984. A "perfect example" of a mid 80's RMK.
The last couple of photos "should" confirm all-of-the-above!
Stay Sharp, Capt. Chris

Verdigris to boot!

But not too much of it.

Looks like you started your "stash" at a very early age.

More power to you!

Larry

I remember building that leather handle!!!...LOL...

that is the end of the line for that spacer arrangement

Nice for sure!
Walker

Happy Fathers Day to all of ya'!
Sunday leftover below: #2-6" in Orange G-10.
Best, Capt. Chris

From 15 years ago...added engraving more recent...

Outstanding Bro...
Best, Capt. Chris

Sometimes...the waiting...is DAMN WELL WORTH IT...available from a Spring Stock Sale walk-ins only...

Sweet copper!

Tom Flynn

Scott, those are awesome. Very good catch right there.
Walker

Oh no!! Not mine!! As an employee, we do not get to participate in the Stock Sale knives...these went to the first two gentlemen in line...(arrived Saturday around noon!!)

Dave-N-Dave?
Capt. Chris

U know it!!

They scored very well then!
Thanks Scott.
Walker

how about some tenite...
this one went away....no way I could have afforded it!!!

:-)Rocky

I was caretaker for this Tenite 15 for ten years.
It did appear in Hunt's Book Randall Fighting Knives in Wartime, Pages 136-137

Rare stuff goin' on here! NICE! Speaking of "rare"? One of 4 ever made with RMK blade stamp, as best anyone can account for, to include GTR, Jason, etc.
"Dusty" sold me his at the Orlando Gun & Knife Show (Fairgrounds) 20 years ago. He worked with Maurice Johnson. Hope it's interesting to all y'all.
Stay Sharp, Capt. Chris
PS: More photo problems...CCS

I'll try a separate post...
CCS

A rare knife called the Ary tendon cutter appeared years ago. I believe it was one of 2.it was photographed in blade magazine and the RKS newsletter.although I can't find it.I saw that knife at the blade show west.i think the other one is in the randall museum. Does anyone on the forum own one of those rare knives?

I found it in RKS August 1992.

It was also in RKCC's "KNIFE KNEWS" and belonged to Arthur Green now.
CCS
PS I cannot post "any photos" at all & have been in touch with RickT for some time today...or else: I'd post the Ary Tendon cutter pic.
CCS

Don't own it, but know who does.

Or "did"...per the Captain's post...citing a different name.

Larry

one more....Big Jim got this one from my dad....when my dad heard Big Jim's number, he was "send me the money"!!!! which Big Jim did...the knife was in perfect condition, being only displayed....it, along with several others were stolen, then hidden inside a wall, covered in sheetrock, in a restaurant...when there was a water issue, they were found...the water issue had gone on for quite a while...the police returned them to my dad....Atlanta was a smaller town back them, and folks knew folks...

:-)Rocky

I don't own one, but here is a picture. Also, there's a 10-year-old thread at tendon cutter

here is a photo of the tendon cutter from a couple of years ago. Still sitting in the same position in the same case as it has been for quite some time.

This place has SO much information on models never mentioned. Amazing for sure!
Walker

My "ULU" (or leather knife) originated with the inuits for cutting/scraping blubber, etc. A "true" ULU has a "t"-shaped handle. This one has a more traditional handle, pinned black & white ebony.
Stay Sharp,
Capt. Chris
PS: I got the rest of the pics up in my original posting...CCS

Cap that is an awesome knife!

Tom Flynn

Tom Flynn

Splendid Tom,
Thanks for taking the time to post these. I appreciate it.
Best, Capt. Chris

nice collection!!!

:-)Rocky

Nice, indeed. You sure got me beat!

Very nice collection. Thanks for sharing.
Walker

How about posting some knives with Sawteeth this weekend?

A few with teeth!

Those teeth tear a cloth to shreds when you wipe down the blades.

Clean in the opposite direction...Nice set Rod.
Stay Sharp, Capt. Chris

Nice Teeth Rod!

Tom Flynn

Capt and Tom

Thank you. I would buy every one that I can find. They are my favourites.

Here's a nice "leftover". Model #24-4 inch, Guardian, in Old Yeller and engraved by Louis Sanchez.
Enjoy,
Capt. Chris

Leftover?! Looks more like the main course to me! Nice one Capt

Wow ! Some left over, Mike

Cap, that’s a super looking knife for sure.
Walker

By "Leftovers", members, I simply mean a knife (or whatever) that "doesn't fit" any of the other categories. Example below:
Stay Sharp, Capt. Chris
PS: Thanks Buck for selling me this...CCS

For some reason I can only post 1 at a time...???
CCS

That very special!

Tom Flynn

RMK didn't do many pine cones for me. Some of the original stuff was not stabilized properly. Here's a nice Sergeants in white Norwegian, Blue Spruce pine cone!
Another "leftover" that really doesn't have it's own category.
Stay Sharp, Capt. Chris

Good Sunday to all y'all,
Stay Sharp,
Capt. Chris

Very nice, Cap.
Walker

I was impressed by the Pine Cone that RMK did for the Capt. and was disappointed when they stopped.
James Behring did this for me with the Pine.

Those pine cone knives really are TOP!

It's SUNDAY!
I hope y'all are doing well. This example shown below was one of the very first NASA knives. Perry & I cut this insulator block, using the bolt-down holes for a guide!
Hope you like it, thanks.
Stay Sharp,
Capt. Chris

Very nice!
Shoot870p

Cool little bit of history.
Sure do miss Perry.

Sunday Leftovers,
Model #2-5 in Musk Ox...
Stay Sharp,
Capt. Chris

Not a Randall - I know!
It's a George Herron 40th anniversary offering. Sarah Brady did the 'scratching' on them. Enjoy it I hope!

Those are scarcer than Hen's Teeth!
I searched for one a number of years with no luck.
George Herron selected Sandra Brady for the Scrim and she captured his essence.
Great collectible!

Cap,

Great piece of Musk-ox

Tom Flynn

It's "Anything can happen day"...or Sunday Leftover Day, whichever you prefer. This one is officially "RARE"!
Stay Sharp, Capt. Chris

So, guessing a crack and therefore shortened???

Larry

I think not Larry. It came to me, via Tommy Clark, outta' Rhett's shop after his passing. Pete looked at it and said it looked real and was made in the shop??? Who knows?. I had Greg make the Ostrich sheath a decade (or so) ago.
Best, Capt. Chris

Capt. Chris...

Thanks for the backstory.

Although they might "look alike," every RMK is a standalone knife.

I went through my records just looking at Model 1's with stag marked as "Keep" because I liked a knife when I bought it at a show or it arrived from wherever I bought it.

Six of them...and if I laid them side-by-side to select just one to keep...it would be a hard decision. Each of them is "perfect" in its own way.

Larry

Sunday storms happening here today. Here's a way-cool leftover. 1st re-handle Jim did for me (Treeman) on a 4 1/2" Model #4 with the original 3/16" stock knives "FLA S" blade stamp! You cannot imagine how fine it feels in your hand!
Stay Sharp,
Capt. Chris
PS: Scagel-esque styled handle...(& the deep, amber stag doesn't suck either!)...Mosher sheath...CCS

Very nice!

End of 2023!
Wish everyone a Happy and Heathy 2024!!

Nice!

Larry

Been some time since anyone's had "leftovers". How 'bout this Model #18, engraved and silver inlayed by Jere Davidson...
Stay Sharp, Capt. Chris

Very nice!

Holy cow!

You've been holdin out on us Capt, that's spectacular!!

Fabulous 18!

Is the wood a sleeve over the SS tube handle?

Too dressy to take into the boonies, but it sure is pretty.

Larry

Great 18 Cap! That's one of a kind

Tom Flynn

Nice knife!

Sunday again....Here's a #5-8" in FWI!
Enjoy, Capt. Chris
PS: Let's see some of "your gets"...CCS
