I have wanted one of the Joe Dorsky Randall 'RECON' knives for years...the only info I could find was on some of the other forums. Here is the info I recieved from the gentleman I bought my 'RECON' from:


Very rare numbered special edition commissioned by a noted Randall Collector. This is knife number 048 of eighty some made..first delivery was around 2003.

Intention was to do a knife close to the early Vietnam Nam era (1964) CISO 7" Recon by Ben Baker. This took years to get through The Randall shop. Of particular concern was the difficulty of sharpening the top bevel of the model 3 grind 7" blade, but it was finally agreed to!

Features a Stainless steel blade with sharpened bevel, Brass double hilt, Brass butt, Wrist thong, All black spacers. Knife and Black sheath are both numbered (048).
