Coach,

My guess would be the 28 was always supposed to be the big brother to the RKS5 which never had a square hilt. That's why options are few.

Thanks Warren.

Just about every Randall Knife I have, has a square top single hilt.

When I tried to order a #28 with a square top single hilt, the shop said “NO”.

Just wonderin’. I even have a Clinton Special that has a square top single hilt.

???

Don't take mine as the official answer but I would think it's close.

I reckon that nobody knows for sure.

We actually try to keep the options on the newer knives to a minimum...at least till we get it in our systems that THIS is what this particular knife is supposed to look like...this may be an option at a later date...then again...(see the model #25)

Thanks Scott.

I would sure like to know if a square top single hilt is ever offered on a #28 Full Tang.

I have ordered only one square-top, thinking it would be more attractive than the standard hilt. I think I prefer the standard shape, and sort of regret that I didn't stay with it on this little RMK.

Hey Steve, at the time of production on that model 21, I believe a squared hilt was the standard...

The 21 was Pete's favorite, at least that's what he told me. He used a custom neck lanyard, assume from Johnson.

Really like that 21 with the old yella. Let me know if you ever get tired of it. ;-)
