Yup and whilst I was active duty, Randall will make it for you in just six weeks. Had it ordered right before Desert Shield/Storm and carried it ever since.
A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…”

1-7 & 20 Yukon Skinner, I am going to have the 20 reground as I really do not like it...too heavy and thick. I much prefer the butchers knife near the front swivel.
These are my opinions, feel free to disagree.

4 year wait on a Randall from the mfg direct....50 down and delivery in 2017....wow! Yeah, I have a model 25 on order, and it will be a while, yet. On the positive side, I shot an offer on the Model 14 to one dealer, $100 off his asking price, and he took it.

My latest hunter... Used to go with the fancy wood but have since starting switching to utility...like my rifles! What make of Bark river is that? Gunny without a ramp? What steel? Happy with its feild performance? Ive been debating on a gunny in the standard profile or drop point and debating A2 or 30V...
Other than that, How was the show Mrs. Lincoln?

Happy with its feild performance? Ive been debating on a gunny in the standard profile or drop point and debating A2 or 30V... Rampless Gunny...bought it that way from KSF. Buddy just bought one and sent it in to grind the ramp off. This is the second Gunny I've owned. Sold the first to a friend and ended up coming back to one. Probably the best balanced/sized knife I've ever used (although their Loveless Drop Point Humter is sweet, as well). Enough of a drop point for pointy work and enough belly to skin. Blade length perfect. Tis one is an A2...Mike's heat treat is so good I didn't see the need to go CPM 3V. While super tough it's definitely harder to sharpen (the CPM 3V). The Mini-Canadian and Liten Bror in the picture are CPM 3V, the rest are all Bark River's A2. Couldn't be happier with its performance from kitchen to field. Custom knife at 'big' producer prices. I wouldn't trade any of my Barkies for ANYTHING Sportmans Warehouse sells (or most other places). Not to mention their lifetime warranty... And I'll NEVER go back to a micro bevel knife after the convex grind... PS Unless you're willing to spend extra time and effort on sharpening, I would go A2...their heat treat is great. Holds an edge, nearly indestructible and much easier to strop back to,shaving sharp.

Because you don't backpack to Barbarian lakes? Only Barbarian Wenches are sufficiently content that they don't give a phouc who is watching, or why. Italian imports are one of my favorite styles.
