really used knife, gently and with love,
as my Marbles smile

I am interested - finger notching standart or not?
it is unusual - large and made rounded abrasive.

Somebody destroyed this knife by grinding it down....This is what it's supposed to look like.

Finger grips were "not" standard...Thumb notches "were"...but, at this point, it really doesn't matter.
Best, Capt. Chris

Thanks Capt. Chris!

I do not think that someone special grind a knife,
just often used and often sharpened.
This often occurs in old knives. Knife tool was expensive,
because was used until the end - until it transformation into awl.

Here's one of mine. Bought about 4 years ago. I supplied te handle material myself, a piece of moose horn from a big one shot in Sweden. Nickle silver guard and rounded nickel silver butt cap. I think the model 11 is a great all round using and hunting knife.

Snake,
No...It has been "extremely altered"! I have knives that have seen hard use, plenty of wear & tear. "BUT" (There's that word again) there would/could be no other explanation for this one you have shown, seeing as how 1/2" of the "TOP" of the knife has been altered, which would have nothing to do with any type of "usage".
Best, Capt. Chris

I agree with the Capt. 100%. Personally, I would be embarrassed to have this among my Randall's......lol

Bill,
I wouldn't go that far....
If I had that knife, it would go the deer cabin, or fishing boat, and used...heavily...if it falls off the boat, or gets lost in the woods, there would be no remorse.
There is always some kind of use for an old Randall.
you should see one of my older filet knives(non Randall)...it's about "sharpened" out...

:-)Rocky
