If your looking for the Gaddis book on Randall's, Nordic Knives just posted one for sale on their site. If you have any questions just call them and speak with Dave, or Daniel. 208-202-2913

Sam,
Welcome to both the forums and the club! Gary Clinton has Pete Hamilton's book for sale @ $72.00! Gary is "also" a charter member of the RKCC and he advertises and supports "this forum"! Just sayin',,,
Stay Sharp, Capt. Chris

Gary is a great guy, I think you'll find that most Randall dealers and enthusiasts are, and are very willing to help if they can.

Around the time Sheldon Wickersham published his Reference Book he also created a Quick Reference Guide which was pretty neat. It was fold up plastic laminated page that presented a Timeline for Randall Made Knives. He took the dates from already established information so I believe it was very accurate. Don't know if any are still available but it was handy to carry around.
