Wow.., some incredible deals! I don't know if it counts for this thread.., but I found a Randall Model 1 in the sheath.., in a box someone had apparently thrown from a vehicle in the Mojave Desert. It was wrapped in T-Shirts and rags with a Buck 112.., some rolled up socks.., and a sweat shirt.
The 112 had been used quite a bit, but was well maintained, and the Randall was in very good shape although it had been sharpened. The nearest town was Mojave itself, so I posted some flyers with my phone number.., asking that if the owner called me and describe the missing items in the box, I'd be happy to ship them off.., but never heard anything except one "Crank Call" saying they had lost 20 Gold Bars 12 miles south of Mojave...lol.
Traded it away many years ago since I'm not a Randall fan.., but I'd guess it's probably the best "deal" I've got. Since it was relatively near a Camping location.., I always assumed that it simply fell off a truck or something.., but it's one of those things I'll never know I suppose.
