OK Brother Jesse! If I can remember/figure out how to post a photo that members don't have to search for, here are some BF's that are a little different. These (SN#'s BF 722 & 723) are in red micarta from Jim Behring, single fingergrip handle with black C sheaths. Oh yeah, they have N/S hilts in Model 14 style. If I only get one picture posted, one can only imagine the other one looks about the same. OK, here goes. Bill.

Jesse, here's other side of the twin Buxton Fighter. This one is SN #723, the first one is SN #722. They are the most identical Randalls I have ever seen. Only after looking at both BFs a while did I detect a little difference in the micarta, and of course, that is expected. Bill.

I received a standard-configuration Buxton Fighter today. It came direct from Wayne, and is #BF 735. I guess that is the number that they're up to now.

Standard configuration is a #1-style nickel silver double hilt and border patrol handle made of black micarta.

Ken, I think the #1 hilt is the standard BF and Mr Wayne Buxton told me about two years ago that he would only order black or green micarta. So, I don't know how/where/when a fellow can get the customer supplied micarta deals done but some folks seem to get him to do it. The last one I ordered directly from Wayne was the standard BF with black micarta. Of course, I like it a lot especially since it came from Wayne's place in TEXAS!!

Guido, I really like the deep cut finger grooves. Most I have seen are more shallow.

I just took some quick-and-dirty snapshots of #BF 735:

Hi Guido, my origional post was about your pictures of a Buxton Fighter with a red handle. There were two knives in the picture and the bottom one had been cut up kinda because it was not a Buxton. I was just being a smart guy! Sorry. I will send you a few pictures tomorrow of some knives I have in stock now. Thanks for your interest. Also I had gotten you mixed up with Edo Garofoli. He has a few of my knives, and had sent me a picture of him in Monument Valley! Again, sorry for any confusion! Your Goofy friend in America!
