A lady brought a knife, sheath, company catalog, and an instruction sheet telling the user how to kill someone with the knife to the show.

She explained the knife had been purchased by her father in Florida, at Randall during WWII. He was on his way to Europe to fly a P-61 as a night fighter. He survived the war and was an Ace.

The items were valued at between $3500 and $4,000 dollars.

I would move this to The Essential Edge for a great discussion there.

I was at a gun show, and a fellow looked at Randalls with me. He was older. He explained exactly how to use the knife to sever the spinal cord and kill the enemy. I could tell this was instruction from his experience, not the sheet. He was sad after saying how to use the Randall and the memories flooded back.
