If you were looking for an alternate to a Randall 7" on a budget, what would you choose?

My obvious choice is a Blackjack, any others?

The Blackjack is the only production knife I'm aware of. It's not exactly cheap, and it's definitely not a Randall, but it's a decent knife.
 
SOG make something called the Creed that looks a little like a Randall. Don't have any experience with it. Cold Steel used to sell a reasonable copy of the Model 1 - I had one about 10 years back and it wasn't a bad knife. I think it was called the R1 - had a black micarta grip and a nice Randall style sheath. They moved production from Japan to Taiwan and I don't know if quality was the same. Not sure if they are still available.

Blackjack would be the pick of the Randall inspired knives but as indicated above they are not what some would call 'budget' knives.
