This is how the letter reads from Tom Clinton on the beginning of his dealer special.
Sometime in 1989 I visited the Randall shop in Orlando.
During my visit with Gary Randall he mentioned I might want to consider a “Dealer Special” with Pete Hamilton’s help he showed me all the current dealer specials. After looking at all of them I thought of the 70’s full tang drop point hunters would be a great “Special” we discussed it with Gary and was advised they weren’t making them anymore. Back to the drawing board…… Next choice was a unique double edge fighter. In the museum there was a knife called the “Moon Knife” witch I liked. Gary agreed and we started planning. It was determined that it would be stainless steel. Seven inches long, trademark parallel with the hilt. Forward curved hilt only, nickel silver only.
The standard “T-C” special has aluminum and black spacers, black micarta commando shape, duralumin coolie cap, and a black model “A” sheath.

Ladies and Gentlemen: could we please see some Clinton specials!!!
