Rod / Michael / Tune / Cliff: Thanks! Much appreciated.

Leatherman: I had forgotten that a late 30's early 40's "fancy handled" carving set came up on e-bay maybe 6-7 years ago. If I remember right, the seller had run across it at a garage sale and that seller had literally given the set away.

Best,

Thats very scary! I hope that carving set is in good hands now.

Again, that knife is a beauty, congrats!

Leatherman,

It was bought by a purveyor who turned it to a serious collector. It's in good hands, but unfortunately it won't see the light of day as long as that collector is living. You can bet that there are a fair number of amazing old Randalls buried deep in collections that most people are unaware of.

Thanks again for your kind comments.

Best,

Gee Ron, you'd think after all these years of collecting Randalls you'd know that you don't buy those old dirty Randalls but bright shiny new ones grin Great looking Randall. You always seem to be able to find the rare ones...
