I was told this knife looks like a rustic Randall #1 and after it was pointed out I have to agree it kind of does. The knife however didn’t start out that way, after forging the blade it just didn’t look right. I had recently finished one I didn’t think look right but made it into a complete knife anyways and ended up having to do some heavy discounting to sell it. I came real close throwing this one into the garbage and just forgetting about it but figuring I had nothing to lose I started reshaping with the grinder and the photo shows the outcome.

Specs:
3/10 inch thick 5160 high carbon steel differentially heat treated.

Overall Length is 13 inches

Blade Length is 7.4 inches long from guard to tip.

Blade width is 1.2 inches wide.

Handle is Shedua (Mozambique) wood with brass guard and pommel. This hidden tang design runs all they though the handle and threaded to the end cap pommel.

Tooled brown leather sheath (shown).

SOLD: Price is $215 shipped in US


I prefer PayPay (my account is kelley_ward2@agilent.com) but also take major credit cards, money orders and checks.
Thanks,
Kelley Ward

Nicely made Kelley! Yes, it does have that Randall look. I'm sure it's a very able cutter! GG
 
Hello Hankins and thanks. Yes I forged the blade. The part that I thought that didn't look right was the shape of the point and this I ground into what you see.
Thanks,
Kelley
