Essential reading

[willis]

Bob Gaddis' book tells the story of Bo Randall and his knives.Lots of history and anecdotes from the old shop records and interviews with Bo and Gary.

The other is a pamphlet on the timeline and and reference guide to help tell when a knife was made.It was written by someguy and his wife.I believe the guy was a G-Man at one time

The "G" man also wrote a fairly informative book that has "unconfused" a lot of Randall collectors.

Yep I have read that one and Pete Hamiltons as well.Also the Hunt book on military knives which has a lot of outstanding Randalls.I remember when the G man was just an avid neophyte with a collection of leather handled Randalls.I think Bear Claw Chris Lapp would tell him,"you've come far pilgrim".

Sheldon's book is my primary go to book..and his Timeline folder's are great for quick info...and in this small world of Randall Knives....Sheldon is one of the 'good guy's'.:thumbup:

But can you skin grizz?

Hmmm, not sure 'bout that, they're pretty big - I have skinned my chin, elbows, and knees a few time recently though...it's never too late to have a happy childhood.
