Randall 1's or others. I'm not talking sci fi 3 blade weird [bleep], just classy, big, stickers that a man would be proud to have strapped to him during a pandemic.
Anyone?

Here is one we made for a hog hunter that would probably be considered a fighting knife by most people. It has a 7 inch blade of CPM S30V.


This is the combat knife we have provided to military in all the branches of service except the Coastguard. It has a 5 inch blade of either CPM S30V or 3V steel.
It has been very well received, but I don't know if it has done any fighting. I think it is mostly used as a utility knife...

Randall 3-6 late 60's.

Wilkinson Sword early 80's.








Classy enough?

Jstuart,
Glad as hell to see you back! Worried something happened to you. Hope the fires didn't do you too much harm.

Love the second one

A bayonet on the end of a Springfield will do me.

I have a dandy Randall 14. Almost impossible to post a picture though with the iPad.

Jack, I think my Howe boar hunter could be a “fighter”...

I have an older Cold Steel Black Bear Classic (a very well made knife, not the POS Bowie they sell now with that name) that I use when hand catching/hunting hogs. It was originally designed as a fighting knife, and would work very well as a SHTF knife, though in reality it is more like a short sword.

It's a classy sticker for sure.

A couple more that would fit the requirements:

7 inch blade of 1095 steel


6 inch blade of CSB (circular saw blade) steel

Beautiful work Harry.

Quillon Dagger by Mike Williams ABS Master Smith, Leaf Pattern Damascus. Forged handle and blade. I made the sheath. I call the combo "The Dragon's Kiss!


and last but in no way the least!



Menefee Made intrepetation of a Randall #1 Fighter. Etched A2 steel. Five year wait! The capstone of my Menefee collection. There is only one other Menefee that is currently un-obtainable that I desire. I have a pix, but have given my word to the owner that I will not post it!

Thanks for the posts.

Any time at all, Tim.

Been awhile since I got out the original T-10 tactical.
Probably made 3 dozen years back.
A-2 steel and mostly with micarta scales.
About half served in the sand pit.
Had some really good reports on their performance..

Couple of Bucks. A 119 & 120.
