Hello,,
Where did these come from?
I guess a retired RMK Collector?
Im new to RMK but think these Collections reflect generational taste.
This Collection is very excellent but mundane.
By Today/My Standards

Thank You
Tunes

They came from an assortment of 6 people, one was a collection of 30 knives.

3 came form the Randall shop on my orders.

One man's mundane is another's treasure.

Well said Mitchell!!

mun·dane
adjective

1. lacking interest or excitement; dull.
2. of this earthly world rather than a heavenly or spiritual one.

This may lead to a "spirited" debate with no "dull" responses.

While I understand that beauty is often in the eye of the beholder, I have never seen a RMK that I would consider mundane or quotidian.

A particular knife may not push all the buttons for me, but I admire them all, from the "base model" with a leather handle that's used and faithfully serves its owner year after year, to the engraved or scrimshawed ivory handled beauty that hangs on the wall or sits in a safe.

Consider the elegance (and brilliance) of design, the artistry and skill of the forging (and grinding), and the superb quality of the craftsmanship of the fit and finish...all of these factors elevate any RMKs to a functional work of art, a thing of beauty, and a damned-fine tool!

I carry a micarta handle Model 19 in my briefcase every day (as well as on my hip for hikes and camping trips; thanks Tune!), and while it shows some signs of use, it remains beautiful in both form and function. It never ceases to draw attention when used at the campsite. Many fellow campers have asked me, "Is that a Randall?" and when I tell them yes, "Can I see it? (or, more often( "Can I hold it?"

Fregis, sorry, but I have to disagree with you here. Such a thing of beauty as an RMK can never be mundane.

I've got to assume the posters use of the word "mundane" comes from a possible lack of English or etiquette. Or both.

Guy Clark, the singer and writer of "The Randall Knife" song has another song that I love.... and it fits here.

The more mundane, the better for me. I love the beauty of simplicity.

I know I was guilty in School of getting hammered over grammar. But I never met a Randall Made knife I didn’t like.

I agree......

First time I ever heard "mundane" and "Randall" used in the same topic, that's kind of like calling someone's newborn ugly.

Hey Tune, That song really is fitting, Thanks for sharing.

As the Mama's and the Papa's said "mundane.mundane,so good to me" (P.S. I know your singing it in your head to see if it works)

Mr. Fregis, as Tune's signature says, "always buying, selling, trading". That's all anybody needs to know about where they came from. Nice group of knives, Tune.

They are very fine knives Pat.

Yes mundane is harsh,

That's very interesting to me as building a RMK collection can go in so many directions..
Im learning that all RMK are unique,,mundane,references to my collection,
as one of your customers I think I was making an excuse for not jumping on one.
Ive got my eye on the 2-8 NSCH Stag NSBC,,lol

Tunes,
I really appreciate your effort and service and look/study your website daily,
Thanks, rege

LOL wait till you own several knives & another model becomes the knife you just can't pass up.

No harm no foul Rege. Randall collectors are a passionate group. Everyone has stepped in it at some point.

I have 8 and want 80

You're hooked up with the right guy to solve that problem

Yeah but usually not up to my knee.
You have a lot of great Randalls,,Sir

8 is a pretty nice collection in itself, anything more than two and you're a collector!
