Custom made is correct, Eric. That's what makes them.
Best, Capt. Chris

Can the large gambler be had with a commando shaped handle? Just thinking that with the "right shaped" handle, it would be a pretty good all around outdoors knife. Thanks for your time, and what you do for the forum.

1st: Griff: "No" to both questions
2nd: Large Gambler can be ordered with a variety of handle shapes, yes! Here's one of my favorites, pictured below. Hope this helps .
Best, Capt. Chris

Thanks for the reply, Captain. On a knife like the large gambler, would the addition of a brass butt make it"butt heavy", as opposed to the aluminium butt? I'm kicking around ideas, and would like to have a neutral balanced knife,not really blade heavy, or butt heavy.

If you do brass it would have to be ordered "thin" and, perhaps, "rounded" to save weight. Most 1/4" stock, 5" blades from the Randall shop have more tip weight than a Large Gambler. The LG is too narrow and too "small-tipped" to allow for a generous amount of brass (and not be "butt-heavy").
Hope this helps, Capt. Chris

"STN" as it is known is available on a number of RMKs, including the #15. Hope this helps.

Per earlier posts, in answer to the question of a butt cap on a Large Gambler: I spoke with Scott yesterday and he informs me that, when ordering a butt cap on a Large Gambler, the shop automatically supplies the "thin" version.
Hope this helps, Capt. Chris
