My customer wanted a replica Randall Model #1 in Damascus with a glass breaker on the pommel. Here it is. 1/4" thick Damascus with stabilized iron wood and green malachite handle. Nickel silver and brass trim. This was a fun project. Let me know what you think.

Wow, nice contrasting colors. The only knife I've got with green on the handles is an ancient Marbles (my fathers hunting knife from the 1920s.) I think the green has something to do with the leather meeting the brass... Frown

I am going to end up in Debtor's Prison because of Michael!! His work is simply wonderful and I will continue to order custom knives from him as long as the funds hold out.

This particular blade is even better than the photographs.

Thank you, Michael, for another work of art.

What a beautiful knife. Wish it was mine.

Question: Did you fold the steels or did you start with a Damascus blank? No disrespect, just being nosy.

I like it. It isn't a Randall copy, but it is undoubtedly Randall inspired. Nice.

That is a work of art, my friend.

Nicely done.
