Meaning no disrespect, but the number "1" below the trademark doesn't appear to be something the Randall Shop would do.

The number would likely be etched on the blade in a neat professional font.

Again, not trying to "torpedo" the story, the number just doesn't look like it came out of the Shop.

Perhaps, Capt Chris or Tunefink or Crutchtip will offer their observation on the "number".
