One more pic.

Nice pic

Great watch and Randall Aircrew Survival. I've got the version with all the saw teeth on back, same border patrol grip. Wanna trade?

Did you get the watch in your Lurp days? Noted the RVN map. Remember, stay a lurp, stay alive.

Very nice

Subfiend · 17 April 2008, 01:05 PM

You gotta love the Randall-GMT combo.

jasonbellevue · 17 April 2008, 01:07 PM

Nice combo, Tom. I like it.

dfndr90 · 17 April 2008, 01:09 PM

I like the model 15 with the Border control handle, and the Bowie is just a classic.

Talk about action, I picked this up today -- the original 1952 edition of Bo Randall's "The Fighting Knife," aka the guide to fighting with your Randall knife.

Subfiend · 19 April 2008, 10:03 AM

I gotta add this one too:

GREAT FIND. A real classic! I love it! I wonder if Bo Randall ever considered a Rolex? Two well engineered products go hand in hand.

I mispoke. My book is from the 6th printing of 2000 copies in 1952. The original book is from WWII.

A very good friend of mine who collected Rolex watches and turned me on to Randall knives would know the answer to this question. He was close friends with Bo Randall and he had several original and one of a kind Randall knives. Unfortunately, he died suddenly in February, so I can't ask him. But I think the answer would be yes.

Those knives don't chop your fingers off......they saw your whole arm off

What's the use of a Rolex then......I suppose you could always get a piece of string and hang it around your neck.
