A "old" new blade
Not exactly an Ethnographic antique blade but very interesting non the less.
I could get a crucible steel blade for that and have a lot of change left. Gene http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...ayphotohosting |

Certainly a rare knife at a high price. For the buyer's sake I hope it's genuine.

It's the real deal alright old Randall knives fetch a very high price. I picked up a Vietnam era model 18 for $200 from a friend at work another friend ask me if I would sell it to him for the same price so I did six months later there was an article saying this knife was worth thousands you could imagine how I kicked myself for selling it. As far as I am concerned I never found them to be such great knives for the price they get for them. Americans I find are very susceptible to hype. Give me a barong or a good bolo or a kukri instead.
