I only have 2 ( WWII #1 Fighters ) right now . Not going to sell them yet . Will keep you posted when i do .

The dozens and dozens i mention are in a 3 year period combined Ebay AND dealer/collector sites .

Granted some are the same knife being resold ( on Ebay ) .

In the initial statement i worded it this way .........

"Since i have been collecting early Randall's ( only about 3 years ) IMO and in my experience the WWII #1 Fighters are not that rare at all .

I have seen dozens and dozens for sale on Ebay and on dealers/collectors sites.
"


I did not mean to imply there is an abundance of them at any one time .

As most know, WWII stilettos are approximately 1 in 10 estimated production versus model 1. So any WWII model 2 is a find.

crutch tip, WWII Stilettos were made from about mid 1943 to mid 1945. In those 2 years were any Stag ones made ? Are there any around that you have seen or heard of ?

I assume if there were Stag WWII Stilettos they would be Double Pinned ?
Thanks.

April of 1943 the first two were made.

Never seen or heard of WWII stag. Bo had quit using stag and switched to leather in November of 1942 on fighting knives although some examples beyond that date do exist.
