I took this in trade at gunshow. Showed it to a couple Randall "experts" that are regular at the gunshow. Got a lot of discussion of what it could be, but no one really knew if it was or was not Old Yeller. I have looked at 10,000 pics here and I really don't know either. I got the feeling that the AGM was preferable to the Old Yeller material? Also, what's up with the black spacers?
(the second pic was taken thru a jewelers loupe)

thanks
Charlie

That's most likely yeller that was stored in the same position long enough that light baked one side and not the other.

Never seen a Randall with all black spacers. Special order, or what???

Actually, it is two pics of the same side.

All black spacers and all red spacers are "free on board" on most any similar cut-down tang model. Aluminum spacers either with red or black spacers in combo, & brass spacers with red or black spacers in combo, on the other hand, are chargeable options.

Thanks. Which is the most desirable the old yeller or the Antique Gold Micarta ? And what time frame was this one made?

Charlie

Let's see the sheath. I say AGM, depending on what is revealed by the sheath for the knife.
Best, Capt. Chris

Agree with Cap, AGM.
Old Yeller seems to be the preferred presently, although my thoughts are AGM will be right there with it soon enough.

There is a color difference between AGM and Old Yeller. The Old Yeller seems to be somewhat paler than the richer AGM color. Here are three of mine:
