W Polidori Knife Enthusiast Registered: 02/09/16 Posts: 5791 Loc: Central New York	Coach, My guess would be the 28 was always supposed to be the big brother to the RKS5 which never had a square hilt. That's why options are few. _________________________ Warren

coachblalock Knife Enthusiast Registered: 12/03/16 Posts: 1872 Loc: Lake Fork, East Texas	Thanks Warren. Just about every Randall Knife I have, has a square top single hilt. When I tried to order a #28 with a square top single hilt, the shop said “NO”. Just wonderin’. I even have a Clinton Special that has a square top single hilt. ??? _________________________ "Filet that fish? Hell naw!

Dirty_Water Knife Enthusiast Registered: 09/13/05 Posts: 2302 Loc: central fl.	We actually try to keep the options on the newer knives to a minimum...at least till we get it in our systems that THIS is what this particular knife is supposed to look like...this may be an option at a later date...then again...(see the model #25) _________________________ ---DW--- Scott RKS #014 HE IS RISEN!, HE IS RISEN INDEED!

Holzinger258 Knife Enthusiast Registered: 09/14/05 Posts: 1805 Loc: The Desert Southwest	I have ordered only one square-top, thinking it would be more attractive than the standard hilt. I think I prefer the standard shape, and sort of regret that I didn't stay with it on this little RMK. Attachments ------ _________________________ -Steve RKCC CM-066 RKS #258

Dirty_Water Knife Enthusiast Registered: 09/13/05 Posts: 2302 Loc: central fl.	Hey Steve, at the time of production on that model 21, I believe a squared hilt was the standard... _________________________ ---DW--- Scott RKS #014 HE IS RISEN!, HE IS RISEN INDEED!
