Here are a few old buddies that we could find after our house fire 1/2011. Lost many more, and salvaged @20 that Tom Enos and Hugh Wright (Both former Randall shop guys) cleaned and rehandled! Then.. I met Captain Stanaback at an O'ville show, then Perry Miller... 2 stock sales and one Blade Show in Atlanta and here we are. I have more pics of fire and before /after on some of the survivors but are too big to post. Will compress and post later!

Seeing those burned up knives makes me ill. How sad. Bet your insurance didn't cover them either.

No injuries to us or firefighters! Dawg-Kids-Wife & Life.... We're very fortunate! Definately a life changer.

Insurance wise... they were fair as they were personal knives. To this day we remeber things that we never got on the list.

Ah well.... we're still in the game and now have fewer but sweeter knives. (still miss the ones grandpa gave to me!)

Steve, so sorry about the fire, but so glad everyone was o.k. Are you a hunter that used/uses folding hunters? Maybe a replacement laying around somewhere you could put to use, although sounds like you're well on the way with your Randalls, and I'm not trying to sell you anything .
Best to you and your family!

Duke, yes we all hunt... fish... escape... hike... live! I did use some of the folders, some were collectors like a Buck 110 25th anniversary all tricked out w/ turquois, mother of pearl +++ and had a 11 set collection of Schrades that were given out by one of the oilfield companies back in Louisiana. My wife actually collected those for me. A couple of those survived now with new handles and another story to go with them. Actually the fire has put me in this position with a lot of new friends and opportunities! Everday is a blessing, so get in the woods!

Nice Tony! Thing is all 3 of those(and other Rem. models) feel amazingly solid, are absolutely well made and,to me at least, feel great in the hand, pocket or sheath as daily, hiking, hunting or kayaking users. Assume that you do carry these sometimes in your outdoor adventures?
