I just bid on this knife, for the offer I made, I can take a risk. But do you guys think the handle and hilt are original?

Thanks!

It's a Randall blade, just not their work.

The seller just added: On Mar-07-19 at 14:44:22 PST, seller added the following information:
This not factory etched or handled. It was made from a KIT blade. “Custom Etched”

blade grind is not original either. Someone butchered that knife.

I didn't see that the blade grind is changed. The seller didn't mention it in the description. He can keep it.

a "choil" of sorts was added. Perhaps "butchered" was a bit harsh being a kit knife, but the blade was changed, albeit not by allot.
