I have inherited 2 Randall knives. Any information on either or both would greatly be appreciated. I will have to take a better picture of the second, but here is the first. Thanks

Baby Sasquatch, 8" blade, stainless only. Looks like brass/black spacers and brass butt cap were only two options.

Here's a link to the "Knife of the week Sasquatch ". Lots of examples and information. I don't recall seeing many with leather handles. Very nice, welcome to the Forum.

Most of the Baby Sasquatch that i can find have the guard is pointing towards the tip of the knife. mine seams to be pointing towards the handle slightly. is this normal. what would an estimated value be. Thanks again

Most have forward curved hilts, some like yours have model 1 hilts, others are less in numbers with lugged hilts or single reduced hilts.
I'd say not many were made leather stacked with #1 hilts and brass hardware. Most folks would option these out as a dealer special. You're likely to find nickel hilts, metal spacers, stainless blades, micarta, stag, wood or custom handle materials, nickel butt caps, IMO.
The shorter 8" blades weren't numbered (normally, some were upon request as matching pairs) like the 11" bigger brother so there's no telling how many were made like yours but probably not too many.
I'd suggest getting in touch with dealer Doug Kenefick to estimate what it would cost to replace at today's shop price. (860) 774-7214

Nice little 3-6 late 90s guessing by the snaps. Possibly a user since it looks like the handle has been treated with a leather preservative

Early 90's for both. The baby dot snaps went out in '95.
