Randall Model 2 Fighting Stiletto Stag
Item #: RA-M2S7
$675.00
This is a heavily made dagger or dirk with a 7" blade of O-1 high carbon tool steel from Randall Knives. We have never put this knife in a printed catalog or a brochure which we mail to members of the Knife Collectors Club. We have offered it at agrussell.com since early 2008 and with just that bit of exposure we have sold about all we could get from Randall. We have now managed to accumulate enough to include it in a catalog.
Randall has been making handmade knives for the past 55 plus years. Gary Randall, the present owner, took over from his father W.D. "Bo" Randall in the mid 1970s. These are the best-known and most noted handmade knives in the world. They have been mentioned in both novels and in histories. No two Randall Made knives are exactly alike, for no jigs or patterns are used in their final construction. Large-scale commercial production with this kind of attention to detail is not feasible and that's why knives of this unique quality are not widely available.
The 7" double ground blade is O-1 high carbon tool steel at 54 to 55 Rc. It is not stainless. We recommed our RustFree™ (RF125 - $8.95) to protect the steel. It is sharp on both edges. The India Stag handle measures 4-3/4" to 5". The double hilt is brass. Measures approximately 12" from tip to butt. Weighs 9.2 oz. Includes a brown leather sheath with sharpening stone. Handmade in the U.S.A.
(8-2024) Due to Randall's high volume of orders, if not on our shelves when you order, delivery of Randall knives ordered from A. G. Russell is currently taking 10-12 months. If ordered directly from Randall the wait is currently about 6 years.

Randall Made Knives
For over 75 years, Randall knives have been the best-known handmade knives in the world. No two Randall Made™ knives are exactly alike, for no jigs or patterns are used in their final construction. Large-scale commercial production with this kind of attention to detail is not feasible and that's why knives of this unique quality are not widely available.
Gary Randall, the present owner, took over from his father, W. D. "Bo" Randall, in the mid 1970's and the shop remains so busy that today it takes over five years to get a knife directly from them. We are one of the few authorized Randall dealers, and try to keep a stock of their knives. Because our orders with Randall are booked years in advance, if we don't have the knife that you want in stock, we can usually have it for you about 10 months, knives with stag will take a year or more. For anyone wanting to order directly from Randall the price will be lower but the wait will be extremely long.
