I want to take a moment to thank you all for the well wishes. Wayne Jordan has been my best friend and mentor for over 30 years. Not just knives, but life in general. He and I have been on many adventures together, 100's of gun shows, countless yard sales and flea markets. In everything we have done, he was always being the mentor and father figure.... and for that I am thankful for every minute we have spent together!! I am honored that he has asked me to carry on his legacy as a Randall Dealer. It is my promise to all of you that I will continue the same service he has provided to the Randall Knife community for the past 53 years.
I want to extend a special thank you to Duke, Mitchell, Chris, Gary, and the entire Randall Shop for the encouragement and support.
Many Thanks! Danny

Ya know this post has me thinking about some of the other posts we discuss. If more of us did like Wayne and stood in the Gap to mentor the young men of our country, things would be different! Glad to see the torch passed.

It takes two or more! Those that want to Learn... and those that want to Coach! (That have the right skills/experience to do so)!!!

Like Chris, Wayne called me a week ago to break the news to about hanging it up.
We did some dealing at the Blade Shows and he sold me a nice "Model 14 on Steroids" at Blade Show 2022, Nice to have "one of one" from the Randall Shop.
Here is Ronnie Beck (left) of Benson NC, with Jim Sinclair at center and Wayne at right, at Blade Show 2022.

Michael,
I will be losing sleep tonight, knowing that I was too lazy to do it right, instead to be shown here with Blade Show lighting.
Consider this a "One of One" Model 14-CDT with resin ivory, and from 3/8" stock. It started out as a Model 12 Bowie, but a flaw in the grinding indicated a flaw that required a "new look" model.
Ironically, I bought it and another Model 12 Bowie from Wayne at my table at Blade Show 2022.
