Lot Description

Randall Model 2 Stiletto in Sheath

5.125" blade length. 4.5" hilt. 10.25" overall with hilt and sheath. Straight double edged spearpoint dagger featuring an aluminum guard with white, red, and walnut spacers mounting a polished walnut one piece grip and hidden tang construction.

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. The Model 2 Stiletto was one of these knives, the bulk of which were fitted with reinforced handles mounting a duraluminum pommel cap. This modern example features a polished walnut grip and is reflective of the sportsman's knives for which Bo Randall became famous.

This lot is located in Cincinnati.
