The knife with stag handle looks like Randall?
Could you tell me what model is it?
funny thing the photo pictures spy's gear (poisoned pin; syrige with morphine etc). Probably taken in KGB museum

It looks like the Randall Model #8 "Trout & Bird" that Francis Gary Powers had when his U-2 spy plane was shot down by the Russians--

Old style Model #8


This is from the Randall catalog:

Model 8 "Trout and Bird Knife"
.......Especially suitable for small fish and feathered game. Historical note: Francis G. Powers, U-2 pilot, was carrying a model 8 when he was shot down over Russia in May, 1960.
