Jay G Knife Enthusiast Registered: 10/24/11 Posts: 473	Hey Team, I was able to pick-up my first Jack Crider Special! It's a 5" with what appears to be brown or maroon micarta?? Any insight you all could share would be appreciated as I'm still learning. I hope everyone is doing well. Jay Attachments ------ ------ ------ ------

Ortega BVT Knife Enthusiast Registered: 02/11/11 Posts: 79 Loc: Switzerland	Really a nice trio Guido! Jay, I would suggest yours has a maroon micarta handle, with 440B blade. It's the first Crider Special I see without the thong hole and with the "FLA" stamp. Sheath and no smoothing at the end of the handle would suggest me that it should have been made before 1990... probably mid 80's. _________________________ Stefano Putelli RKCC CMI-015

Jay G Knife Enthusiast Registered: 10/24/11 Posts: 473	Nice shot Guido - that is a fine lookin trio! The sawteeth "pop" with that brown background. Stefano, Thank you for the learning lesson - I really appreciate your knowledge sharing! There is a lot to learn about these knives and how to date them. Have a good one guys, Jay

Daniele Knife Enthusiast Registered: 08/27/09 Posts: 115 Loc: Mondolfo - Italy	I'm pretty sure I had never posted it before... perhaps because it is a horrible picture! In any case, here are my Crider specials... best, Attachments Jack Crider Dealer Specials.jpg (2151 downloads) Edited by Daniele (02/06/13 07:47 AM) _________________________ Daniele RKS #5847 RKCC CMI-018 Randall knives are like potato chips, you can't just have one.

Ortega BVT Knife Enthusiast Registered: 02/11/11 Posts: 79 Loc: Switzerland	Daniele, those Crider are so beautiful! The 5" version is my favourite The only complain I have about the Crider is about the sheath, that not retain the knife as tight as other Randall sheaths do. _________________________ Stefano Putelli RKCC CMI-015
