lunde Knife Enthusiast Registered: 08/26/06 Posts: 844 Loc: San Jose, CA, USA, Earth	I ordered this #5-6" on 06/09/2004, and it arrived last Monday. The hilt is nickel silver, and there is etching on the blade. _________________________ Ken Lunde RKS #5344 SHAG #1 #4-6-6-SS #2 http://lundestudio.com/RandallOrderingFAQ/

pappy19 Knife Enthusiast Registered: 10/31/07 Posts: 7372 Loc: Garden Valley, Idaho	You have the perfect "all around" knife. I have had mine, a Bradford Angier Model 5-5, since 1975, and have used it almost exclusively until lately. I did add a military type sheath that also holds a Leatherman and a Diamond Eze sharpener stick. I know you will enjoy using your new Model 5, congrats! _________________________ Mike Allen RKCC-CM-086 True West Magazine Maniac Randall Collector Behring Made Collector Ruana Collector Glock Fan NRA- Life Member since 1975 mikenlu99@aol.com

Raindog Knife Enthusiast Registered: 09/13/05 Posts: 1234 Loc: Coldwater, AL, These United St...	I received this #5-8" today from Randall dealer Wayne Jordan. I ordered an 8" because it was the only length #5 that I didn't own. Also, I have very few leather handled Randalls. Top bevel is sharpened. Forgive the washed out brass furniture. There was a harsh, bright sun out and this was a hurried shot. _________________________ Gary Howie RKS# 274 RKCC# 495 Death tugs at my ear and says: "Live, I am coming." --Oliver Wendell Holmes

New2Randalls Knife Enthusiast Registered: 04/19/07 Posts: 1196 Loc: Kalifornia	Gary, I have a Model 3-7 with the same handle configuration and hardware. I thought it was a little unusual because I don't see too many leather handles in a model 22 configuration. I really like the way the feels in my hand. Your 5-8 is really nice.

rodbrown Knife Enthusiast Registered: 12/11/05 Posts: 2122 Loc: Ontario, Canada	I bought some fossil ivory at the Blade Show a couple of years ago. Just had the knife delivered last week. I was not home to take these pictures, I had my wife do that. The fittings are fine silver from Precious Metals Fabrication. In all honesty, the knife isn't as "great" as I had hoped. Maybe the FI isn't what I remember or maybe the pics don't do it justice. But it is a Model 5 and I will keep it!!!!!
