I have two. Bought them many years ago. A #11 Alaskan Skinner, and a #14 Attack. They are well used, and show their age and use.
I have found these to be good blades, but frankly, steel technology has moved past what Randall uses, and there are now much better knives available.

Melvin, that one makes my mouth water.
Here's mine, along with most of my Randalls.

I got these knives from my grandfather who purchased them after the WWII.

Doubled,
Those are both rare and quite valuable Randall Knives. Now that you've posted them, you're likely going to get many requests from collectors looking to purchase them. If you decide that's a route you'd consider, I would strongly suggest you get them appraised before agreeing to sell - I cannot be more clear on this subject.
That said, congrats, your grandfather did you well! Thanks for sharing!

Thank you Melvin.
My grandfather past away about 15 years ago. He bought them when he was in the navy before returning home from Jacksonville, FL. I enjoy these knives very much and so did he. He loved and appreciated anything that was hand made. I have posted so others can enjoy them. Thanks for your advice but some things just aren't for sale.

Doubled,
Good answer.

Nice collection, looks like you have most of the bases covered...

Thank you. You'll notice that with one exxception, I like my blades 5" or smaller. I really like the 4" and below. I'm hunting for a 26-4 Pathfinder right now.
