I'd like to see a WT (wrist thong hole, future decision), which leaves one option for this step.

So if we reserve a spot for WT, it would either be "leave as stag and do something with spacers", or "leave RWB spacers and go with a different handle material".

Another possibility would be standard RWB spacers, standard stag handle, WT and compass -- although I imagine a compass could be a hot mess if you're reaching up in a deer/elk body cavity.

Or, leave it RWB and stag and stop at 4 options after WT.

WT a good idea. I recently lost a emotionally valuable flashlight; it fell out of my pocket. I was lucky enough to find it a day later in the same place in the freeze mud. Now it is always on the strap and will not go anywhere

Thumb notches
Nickel silver hilt
Aluminum/Black spacers
Stag #25 handle

Now, I have a question.
If you order a #25 Handle, do you have a choice of spacers?
I don't think I have ordered spacers with a 25 handle.
The Randall Knives website is down while they update for 2026.

I'm fairly certain your only choices on the #25 handle is "nickel" vs. "brass" dressing with no input on the spacers.

That said, N25 already comes with aluminum/black spacers.

Wowza to all those beauties.

1 - SS
2 - TN
3 - NS1
4 -
5 -

Yeah, I now read the thread about #25, it seems like we can use some store material for the central part of the handle. That is, if we choose handle #25 as option #4, then we can choose #5 - WT OR central part/spacer of the handle, for example, store ironwood, micarta, thuya, etc.. or maybe the Capt. Chris can offer something (westinghouse micarta, yellow, g10..)

Well, N25 and NS1 aren't compatible -- if you pick N25, you automatically get NS1.

That would free up option 3.

If we go with the N25 handle, can we get the wrist thong option?
Maybe that will make a good looking combination
1. SS
2. TN
3. N25
4. Choice of handle material
5. WT
These builds are really helpful to learn what we can do and can not do.

That makes sense! (I was thinking nickel silver to match hilt.)
