Randall 12-9 Sportsman Bowie Unboxing!!!

Randall 12-9 Sportsman Bowie 14 grind, 9 inch blade in 440 B forged inox steel; Unboxing video. www.randallknives.com/knives/...

[@spektr540hemi]

Wonderful knives ! I got a 12-9 several years ago. Nickle silver hilt like yours, nickle silver "bird's beak" (IIRC) pommel, black and silver spacers with Black Walnut handle that has amazing character... been so long I do not remember the names of the shapes, but it is rather basic palm swell oval. I love it. Completely agree with you on the hollow grind.

Thanks for the appreciations!!! It's an amazing bowie knife for sure, one of the best Randall in my opinion!!!

[@LegionTacticoolCutlery]

Beautiful knife ! I've got about another 1 1/2 yrs more wait for mine

[@jonnyboat2]

I'm with you on the hollow grind. I don't like hollow either.

[@dlrmon1]

Great collectible...I inherited a Randle model 5-6 that I use occasionally in nice conditions. I typically prefer a 0 ground convex edge as a woods blade. Not sure about other Randle knives but the geometry on mine really doesn’t perform...

[@dlrmon1]

I do have my eye on a Japanese Katsumi Kitano...Convex ground ZDP-189

[@zoroutdoor9]

I also prefered to use a good convex grind for wood processing and expecially chopping. But Randall have an unique design and an unique history!!! They are extremely collectible

[@spektr540hemi]

I would say that I am a collector that uses the knives I get, regardless of price. I have less than a dozen that I do not use.

[@zoroutdoor9]

I'm basically the same, i usually use almost every knives i buy. Of course there are some exceptions!!

[@robertogiani6229]

Bellissimo, il fascino delle lame Randall non si discute! Dal video però mi sembra che la manicatura in cervo non sia orientate bene, mi sembra larga in orizzontale piuttosto che in verticale, non so se mi spiego...

[@zoroutdoor9]

Il cervo naturale non è mai perfettamente rotondo, tuttavia hanno orientato il manico in modo che calzi a pennello per l'impugnatura di un destrimane. La parte superiore è quella inferiore poi sono tutte stondate per raccordarsi con le altre parti del manico. I dischi in cuoio servono a regolare questa transizione e non sono perfettamente rotondi di proposito. Il manico è comodo e sicuro. I dischi in cuoio sono fondamentali, senza lo stesso risultato non sarebbe stato possibile.

Pezzo stupendo Zoro! Mi piacerebbe molto avvicinarmi al marchio Randall in futuro e magari ,se posso,ti scriverò per qualche informazioni relativa a modelli o primo acquisto consigliato. Ciao e complimenti ancora x la tua collezione!

[@zoroutdoor9]

Grazie mille!! Se posso aiutarti volentieri!!

[@user-xx5zl8dz1v]

Would rather have the stag go down not flat on the top . One thing I don’t like is when the knife comes bent . That is unacceptable .

[@johnd1410]

Randall's are NOT hollow ground. If you look at it from the front you will see the grind is flat, not hollow.

[@zoroutdoor9]

That's wrong. There are actually some models flat, but most of them are hollow. This one is hollow, there is no doubt about it.

[@user-xx5zl8dz1v]

Not à la minium that’s nickel hilt and but cap

[@LegionTacticoolCutlery]

👀👀👀👀👀

[@user-xx5zl8dz1v]

Should open the box nice . Having the original box ads value . Should of cut the tabs . Left the tape on .

[@zoroutdoor9]

That's not the original box, Randall made knives don't have a box, only a sheat.

[@DABA2024]

Should research before making comments LOL
