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? smile

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 smile

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 smile

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!!

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.

The color is very similar to the vermilion on the fountain pen smile
