Nothing wrong with a Randall, they’re iconic. But “finest steel”? No, he was already behind the times by the seventies. But “one man operation”? No, he had 15-20 guys working for him by the seventies. His parents were wealthy from OH and bought thousands of acres of citrus farmland in FL. Making knives was a luxury afforded to him. Americans love to buy and carry what our soldiers use and this military provenance is a sales pitch.

Randall is right up there at the top of the wish list for most knife guys. I read or heard just recently (I think Hickock 45, maybe) that the waiting list is 7 years. To have one from Korea or Vietnam is a treasure. To have your father's from WWII is a priceless heirloom and should not be sold.

Some background. Her father was Lt Herman E Ernst. He flew P61 "Borrowed Time" with the 422nd night fighter squadron from July 1944 until the end of the war. He was one of only four P61 pilots in WW2 who reached "ace" status. He had 5 air victories against enemy aircraft plus he destroyed a V-1 flying bomb. Wonder where his knife is now?
