That is sure tempting at $400 with DD214/5thSFGA.

In my next grind I have cut out a blank of similar pattern to make for myself. Going with elk antler instead of leather washers for handle with no butt cap.
I thought someone would jump on this by now.
The Randalls are in more demand I guess.
I personally carried an Air Force survival knife in my time with the 5th. Not as purty, but damned effective.

Yup, carried the same, tried a Ka-Bar, and a Gerber MKII but both were too long for what I needed. The USAF Survival knife did the trick, still have it in my camping gear.
After getting out I bought the Randall's I wanted, and just can't bring myself to use them in the field as knives. May just keep them in the safe for the kids inheritance.

pm responded to. For tactical knife (now that I make knives), I developed the T-10. Tactical, 10" long and named after T-10 parachutes we jumped with. A dozen plus served in the Sand Pit, but not making them any more. ![[Linked Image]](http://i114.photobucket.com/albums/n273/tolt29/100_0416.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i114.photobucket.com/albums/n273/tolt29/Knives008-1.jpg) Tim
