Hi. I sell a knife. 11 3/4 " o.a.l., 5 3/4 " stainless blade marked RANDALL MADE SOLINGEN S,
other side of blade has II etched (the etched II is 2 straight lines without the top and bottom
as made on my keyboard) which I have no idea of the meaning maybe Captain or? Double brass
guard 2 1/2 " X 7/8 " X 1/8 " with a hole on each end, 5 " hollow handle with black crutch tip,
tang extends 1 7/8 " into the handle, the handle is cord wrapped and I think it is pinched near
the guard pretty hard to tell without ruining the wrap. Blade is a little loose at the guard.
Brown leather rivited split back sheath marked RANDALL MADE KNIVES ORLANDO, FLA., the keeper
strap is gone, gray stone. I sell it(him) at the price of 130 $ + 17 $ shepping. Excuse for bad
English, I use by the interpreter on the computer. If you will interest my the offer, I shall
send you photos. Sincerely yours, Pavel.

Hey Kaitak,

this is exactly the same offer I received a few weeks ago. See my post on the crutch tip scam and the replies. This just verifies the old adage about something being too good to be true.

Buyer beware!
