M14s(Randall design)

[R APPLEBY]

Hello all, fresh from the shutter of Chuck Ward are my 2 most recent completed projects. I made some minor changes, slimmed down the guard on the elk model and changed the grind on the clips a little. Hope ya like them.

Blade; 1/4 X 7 ½ inch hollow ground, satin finished D2

Guard; 416 SS

Handle; 1980s Westinghouse linen micarta with red and white spacers
Or elk with red and stainless steel spacers and butt cap.
OAL; 12 1/4 inches

Sheath; Black Boltron
Or Wickett & Craig oiled leather with Norton pocket stone.

Thanks for looking

Wow, excellent renditions. I like the antler-handled one best, and that's seldom the case.

 

[R APPLEBY]

Thanks all for the kind words.

Hey Bob,
I have to hit the dozen mark for all the customs you and I have collaborated over the past few years. Will send you a pic of what I did with some of them laid out

 

[R APPLEBY]
