Need help to Identify Vietnam era Randall

[capt_cope]

Hi guys while Randalls usually aren't my cup of tea, my uncle gave me this one, he got it as a Marine in Vietnam, and I was wondering just what kind of info you would give me on it.

Your knife appears to be a Randall Model 3 Hunter. A picture of your spacers and sheath would help us date the knife also. It appears to have 7 spacers.

Regards,

Rhett

The shallow choil in front of the hilt on your carbon steel RMK model #3-6 denotes that it was probably made post-1962 ('63 and on), the seven spacer stack denotes pre-73 ('72 and before), the leather lanyard if original, denotes pre-69 ('68 and before)...

As Rhett alluded too, the sheath will tell the rest of the story...

In the mean time, it was prolly made somewhere in the timeframe of '63 to '68...

Hope that helps.:foot:
