Randall , need someone that knows the brand

[Mick Boardman]

Anyone know anything about this knife? It was purchased around 50 years ago. The logo don’t look like any Randall I have seen or owned,they always black logo from the acid. Any help on this would be appreciated. Thanks

Found a similar one on the bay, shows from the 60's.

But the logo is not black like the one you found .

I believe they're actually hot stamped before heat treat and the black is oxides/scale...that first logo doesn't look stamped at all. I'd lean towards it being a fake, sadly.

It does look like something was ground off, just above the Randall. John

Randall sent an email about this knife, its acid etched 60s build. Thanks to everyone that chimed in on this.
