Looks like something out of the Stidham catalog, but I don't have a copy available.

Any info appreciated.

I didn't see it Miles.

Here is a link to it: http://www.randallmadeknife.com/1991-green-catalog-crider-collection/

Interesting knife with scales and exposed tang.

I have never seen one Miles. If it were a "kit" (which I don't think it was) the tang would not be that wide. Seperate "S" & a unique hilt-n-handle combination for sure. Is the blade 4 or 5 inches long?
Nice, Capt. Chris

it's a 4" blade. The slabs look like the metal material used on the early model 10's, the guard / blade with solder just like RMK would have done it.

Miles,
I've been slammed today, listing knives (so my customers still know I'm alive) and dealing with a bitch named "Irma".
Question: Will $1200.00 buy it?
Please advise, thanks.
Capt. Chris

Cool knife Miles, and apparently a rare one if you, Capt. Chris and Mitchell haven't seen one quite like it before.

Is that a "2 4" stamped on the back of the sheath below the clip?

Are the handle pins brass?

Hey Cap't.

That's too much, just give me a call and we can work out the right price.

Hope things are working out after Irma...

Thank you,

Miles

Yes he is Ronnie, of that I had no doubt. Miles and I have had more than our share of dealings with one another to play any "games".
I have spoken with Miles and it's a "done deal"! Thanks Miles.
Stay sharp, Capt. Chris

I have found that most if not all the people that I have dealt with, in regards to Randall Knives, are stand up guys. I think it is Bo Randall's legacy.

Gents,

Thanks for the compliments. So there's the story I just remembered...

I was down in Tulsa about 4 years ago, stopped to talk to a guy behind his table with some RMK's for sale. I was just walking isles incognito, he didn't know who I was or anything. An early 11 caught my eye, so I asked him "hey, what'll you take for that one?" He says he's firm on price and that the knife was 'all original'. I said, "eh, looks like it's been shop cleaned to me"... trying to yank his chain a little and get him down on price. (it was a killer model 11!)

So he says..."well, I bought that knife from a guy named Miles in California and he said the finish was legit and original. Both of you can't be right."

Naturally, my butt puckered up a bit at hearing him mention my name, it took everything I had not to bust up laughing.

So my buddy I was walking isles with overheard the whole thing, looked over my shoulder and asked the seller "do you mean Miles Welze... that Miles?".

Reply: "yes, that's the guy"

My buddy's reply: "yeah, that Miles... he's a real asshole".... shakes his head...then he walks off down the isle.

Needless to say, I made him buy dinner that night.

After giving Capt. a hand today I was able to open this bad boy up!
Took about 20 minutes cause Miles packages stuff like he's sending it to the moon... which is NOT at all a bad thing! crazy

A W E S O M E.... absolutely awesome knife. This knife is what should be considered Randall lore.

way cool find Miles and a very nice pick up for the Captain.

Today is probably the last time it will see the light of day so I am extremely grateful I got to see it in hand before going deep...deeeep... DEEEEEEEEP into the stash. grin

Nice!! It's a cool one... I have so much fun checking out neat stuff as it comes and goes. So many kit knives, so little time. smile

I know my packing tends to be a test of ones patience, better that than arriving with the tip through the end of the box. Better safe than sorry!

I know it's not.
I'm hijacking the thread since you bought the knife & it's done.
I'm asking a Question that has nothing to do with your knife lol!

Cave divers use a trail rope to find there way back out of a underwater cave.
You might need the same thing to find your way out of the "Stash".
Good luck

Whenever somebody mentions the captain's stash, I always picture the warehouse scene from the end of Raiders of the lost ark.
