GM -- Green Micarta (handle material)

DB -- Duralumin Butt (Cap)
NSB -- Nickel Silver Butt (Cap)
CI -- Compass
NHS -- No Hone Sheath
MCB -- Model C Sheath, black
MAB -- Model A Sheath, black

Not a comprehensive list, I haven't ordered every option (yet).

Rob,
"BRP" is a brass butt plate. "BTB" is brass hardware on a Trailblazer, Model #27-5 3/4".
Hope this helps, Capt. Chris

Thanks guys, I own some Randall’s. But never payed attention to all the options and configurations. Next up I think is going to be a Buxton special, that’s a bad looking knife, also want a 14 with a sawtooth no teeth blade. Got two Randall’s in bound from the fall sale, a thrower and CC FT.

Right now trying to compile a master list of abbreviations.

Here's a Model 14 with sawteeth-no teeth. It also has the popular "Single Finger Grip" (SFG). The abbreviation for "saw teeth-no teeth" is STN.

Rob,
DB- Duralumin Butt Cap-not Plate
NSB-Nickel Silver Butt Cap-not Plate

BB-Brass Butt Cap

BRP-Brass Plate
NSP-Nickel Silver Plate

Thanks Capt and Ken, fixed my list to minimize the corn-fuzion.

What can I say? I haven't been able to hang with the crew for a year now. Things are starting to blur together

It would be nice to have a place to save this info. for future users - kind of a sticky note!!

GREAT idea

I tried to break the list down in my original post. Any corrections would be helpful. Anyone know what these are?
MCP
ST
CDT
B25
RWB

B25 is model25 handle, Brass
ST is sawteeth
CDT is reduced tang (e.g. model 15 available in "full" by default, CDT is an available option)
RWB is default spacer arrangement, red white and blue

Your "SS1"..."SS3" is missing one detail, those are the codes for stainless steel.

I can no longer edit my original post. SO here you go with some corrections.

Rob...I replyed to this earlier,about the N25 and B25...LOL...at least he believes 1 of us! 8-)

Ah so you’re saying N25 is a model 25 handle with nickel silver. Man it’s confusing.

There's no MCP designation, there are however over 700 "acronyms" we use....so good luck with that...

N.S.

Ahhhh, ahhhh, at least there’s an end number. Lol

Saw-teeth on a #14 CDT is designated NFW

Ah

Well done
