Randall #14 test 

[stealthgoat]

thanks guys, any of you knowledgeable about Randall's ? 

I have had a few #1 , #15  several #14s.

I *think* I bought this one on a whim at Nordic Knife in Solvang on vacation about 15 years ago.   I use an older #15, but this #14 is a total safe queen -  and only one I have with the forward curved hilt and a black sheath.

Anything in particular you are wanting to know?  I know a little but not much.  I love a Randall 1.

hey Capbyrd, 

I am just trying to educate myself a little.  I have always liked Randalls, but I actually prefer Border patrol handle (or just one finger groove) not multiple groves like this. And we used to use Kiwi to blacken a brown sheath, but apparently factory black was also an option when this was made.   

I don't have a #1 anymore.  And years ago I traded my old beat up #14 straight across for a shiny new #15 (and in hind sight not such a good deal).  Then I found this new #14 to replace my old #14.     

thanks,

Give this a listen.  You may learn a little.  If not, they reference some material that might point you to more information.
