Founded by Bo Randall in 1938, Randall Made Knives soon became well known for their quality and durability. Thousands of his hand-made knives were acquired by American military personnel during World War II, with Randall devising his first numerically assigned models especially for military service. This modern version of the World War II era Model 1 knife mounts rustproof Micarta grips on a stainless blade.
