Guys, you've got it all wrong. It's a Model 29.

The blade is obviously genuine—you can clearly see the ‘Randall’ imprint—but the handle is probably a replacement. An early knife, certainly, as you can tell from the riveted sheath. This is one of the earliest stainless Randalls.

Apparently the fancy stitching on the front of the sheath prevented attaching a sheath pouch, so they must have done something ingenius--like putting it on the back!

What skepticism. This is obviously the rare one of a kind Frost Cutlery designed Randall. The bidding is up to $161.50. Unfortunately ebay looks at it as it's a knife with a picture. If the buyer isn't happy he can request a refund but ebay will not cancel an add because of 3rd party concerns.

Unless these are schill bids there are more than a couple of highly uninformed persons that 'think' this a genuine item from Randall! crazy

Doesn't look like the high bidder is a shill. He has a rating of 3489 and bids mostly knives and WW2 items. It's also his first bid on this knife. The guy in 2nd though has raised the bid 7 times on this knife, doesn't usually bid on knives and has a history of bid retractions.
