Back when Obasm made ivory illegal, a fool at the big Louisville show offered up a genuine Randall 12-12" on the cheap. Yes, it had an elephant ivory handle. My resident Randall expert said it dates to maybe 1954. I bought it and love it. Its even got the brass back brazed/welded in place. Looking at it, you can't tell if its ever been used. I can tell you that it has...  Unhappy ammo seeker | |||

I have an Ontario Marine Raider Bowie that I found when out hunting. It's a beast, and is my "Truck Knife". Blade is 9 3/4".  I also have a 75th Anniversary Buck 119 with a 6"blade.

I also have a V-44, but mine is a Collins. I was given it as gift in 1946 by a Marine Cpl. "All warfare is based on deception" Sun Tzu, The art of War | |||

The knife is fantastic, what is the revolver almost big enough to be a walker colt | |||

Actually the revolver is a 1861 Navy .36, same styling as the 1860 .44 but a bit smaller overall. The Walker is quite a lot bigger than either one. This model was a favorite of Wild Bill. ________________________________________________________ The trouble with trouble is; it always starts out as fun. | |||
