dobermandave1 Just dropped in Registered: 01/09/18 Posts: 8 Loc: Pittsburgh , PA	Hello All, I'm new to the forum... I have an old Springfield #1... It's been ridden hard and put away wet... I'm not sure what I want to do with it, fix it or sell it... I'm sure this is the right place to get the right info to guide me in the right direction... I don't have the sheath for it, can you find them used or new ??? When I figure out how to attach pictures, I will....

dobermandave1 Just dropped in Registered: 01/09/18 Posts: 8 Loc: Pittsburgh , PA	I found this knife in the woods 45 years ago when I was a teenager ... Cleaned the rust off and put a really sharp edge on it... This was one of my knives that went to hunting camp yearly with me until 1997... Recently I was cleaning up and got into my knife box. The same old thought ran through my head when I picked up the Randall...What is the story behind this big,old, military style knife, and that brought me to this forum.... (Randall directed me to this forum ) I'm looking for information on what to do with this knife... Can it be re-ground to get the pits out to factor finish ??? The sheath is missing... should I try to find an original or is a reproduction satisfactory ??? The image is satisfactory to get an idea of the condition or lack of... I'm interested in all opinions...Like my father liked to say... Opinions are like assholes, everybody has one ...(hope I didn't offend )... Thanks... Dobermandave1....

TAH Knife Enthusiast Registered: 10/26/05 Posts: 2382 Loc: USA	You found it in the woods 45 years ago?!?! What a story! I wouldn't do a thing to it. Don't erase the story by refinishing it in anyway. If it was mine, I'd put it on display and call it a day. _________________________ Tom RKS #4233
