You have 2 "chargeable" options, nickel silver hilt and border patrol. You have one "non-chargeable", squared top. That leaves you with 3 options...but what would you add?
Best, Capt. Chris




Capt. Chris,

I would add the wrist thong, thumb notches and (possibly) the compass, though I have not decided whether or not I would actually want a compass on the knife.

Brian,
Read the catalog and "non-atalog" description on the Fireman. Wrist thong cames standard on "any" full, exposed tang Randall, i.e. Model #14, #15, #16, #16-Spl. Fighter, and The Fireman.
Compass cannot be installed on any full tang knife, so your extra options are limited.
Thumb notches are standard as well. Hope this helps...
Best, Capt. Chris

Then about all I would add would be a name plate or etching. Doesn't seem to be much else left to choose from.

thanks,

BINGO!! That's why I asked.."What else ya' gonna do"? They're isn't much you "can" do.
Best, Capt. Chris
P.S. I once bought from Greg Gutcher (and I cannot find it) a Model "C" sheath for a "Fireman". It was "way-cool" and rode the knife lower, which I liked!!...CCS

Think I got it nailed.
#14-CDT
1) #14/18 hilt (brass) "drilled"
2) leather handle with grips
3) brass buttcap
4) thong (wrist type)
5) stainless
6) (no charge) all black spacers

Nice knife! Don't forget to post some pics when you receive it. Also: What about $20 extra and get a black "C" styled sheath (to match your spacers)?
Best, Capt. Chris

Hi, my first Post here.

I want to order a Randall #26 Pathfinder with Stag Handle , Stainless Steel Blade, and a Compass in the handle.
I have seen that the Stag is curved different on most #26.

Can i ask for a less curved handle?


best regards, Alex Ramm

You can request "straight stag, if possible", but may or may not get it. You can order a #26 with a 3-piece "Trapper-style" handle and it will be more straight.
Best, Capt. Chris
