: Randy’s fascination with knives began as a young man, when he made his first knife in a high school “metal” class. Since then, knifemaking has become a family project for him. Each of his four sons have taken their turn helping in the shop, while his wife, Sonja, makes the sheaths for the knives. This knife was kept in a private collection since it was made. It is in brand new, unused condition and by all appearances Randy could have made it yesterday.
The 5-1/2 inch blade is mirror polished CPM-154 stainless steel. This powdered metallurgical steel has a particularly small grain structure, making it take an extremely keen edge and hold it while remaining tough and chip resistant. Randy’s mark is on the left side of the blade.
The stacked handle combines Arizona desert ironwood with sections of brown canvas Micarta, amber, Acrylustre and stainless steel. Stainless steel and fiber spacers will help the different materials adjust to humidity temperature changes. The handle is finished with a stainless steel guard, sub-hilt, and pommel.
To keep the knife close at hand, a sheath, handmade by Sonja Lee, is included.
Excellent work throughout!
