I had a knife identical to this way back in the early 80's and foolishly sold it.
What do you guys think? Is it authentic? It seems pretty reasonably priced for a NOS Randal.

Thanx

You can get a new one from any of the Authorized Randall Dealers, like Gary Clinton, Duke McCaa, Chris Stanaback or myself that are on this Forum, for a lot less @ around $500, if you're willing to wait about six months. Perhaps, one of those mentioned, has one in stock for immediate delivery.

I have one Model 15, but it has a single brass hilt & sawteeth-no teeth in a "Hunter" design style.

You just have to ask yourself if paying $350 more for a used Model 15, at least 25 years old, that spent a lot of time stored in the sheath as evidenced by the wear on the sheath strap in one of the photos, is not worth the wait.

Take note of the banners at the top of the homepage. They support this Forum, so contact them, before heading back to eBay.

If you don't ask, its an automatic "no".

Thank you, great info.
My interest in this one is more nostalgia from when I was stationed at Ft Bragg.
I don't see a website for you on the banner. Do you have one listed elsewhere?

Thanx

Jim

Sorry, no.

But I had a store at 5705 Bragg Blvd, called Cumberland Knife & Gun Works, next to the Pantry Convenience Store from 1972 to 1999.

You may have bought it there. I carried about 50 models on hand regularly.
