Cleaning up a Model 1

A neighbor asked me to polish up a couple of knives for him. So I drop by to pick them up. A left-handed Model 1 fighter circa 1962 that he carried in 'Nam and a skinner almost as old, both in great condition. Worth the work to clean them up just to visit.

Hey Jack,

We love seeing photos of Randalls. In my case the older the better. If you can post some photos it would be appreciated.

Thanks and best,

Ron

Already gave them back, but did get a bit more story. The skinner was bought in 1956 and the fighter in 1962. He has a letter from Bo Randall about the fighter, as he asked for something different and Bo told him 'no'. I'm gonna try to get him to let me take some pics.

Thanks Jack!

I hope your neighbour will let you snap some photos. I'm sure folks are looking forward to seeing these two "oldsters".

Your efforts are appreciated. Thanks!

Cheers!

David
