Splendid Piece of Cutlery you got.

Nice one.

Don't let them give you any crap...everyone started out crawling before walking. Producing videos takes time, effort, and equipment... you will grow into it...

Don't worry about the critics, at least you are doing something. There you have the best fighting knife since WWII. As Bob Loveless said: "One of the oldest, still one of the best". You should practice knife fighting now. There is a video here that shows WWII footage from Randall Shop: WWII Bo Randall. Take care of that blade cause it is a carbon one.

I like bark river knives, however, you never get the model you really want. You always have to settle for what’s just available. You can’t special order anything either. I wish bark River would open up a specialty shop and take orders for some of their models. Make them truly customs. it’s like Microtech knives, we have so many Ultratechs sitting on retailer shelves that they are falling out of our ears. Sometimes it’s the only thing available. same thing goes for the bark River Bravo! it’s like, my choice is a bravo, or a Bravo 1.5 or whatever lol.

Nicely done video and never mind the thumbs down. I like the side view of the camera as it's kind of like sitting right there watching the opening, and who wouldn't love to be sitting in while a buddy unboxes a new Randall. You took a good look at the awesome Randall sheath first and that's good. In some unboxings I've seen the 'host' not even look at it. Yes good first review, and you'll get better. Great 1st Randall too! Forty years ago the first of my Randall collection was a brand new Model 3-6 from Nordic Knives. Basic leather, brass, and tool steel. While I have a nice 1-8 with stag, the most recent was a 7-5 with stag and nickel silver that I've dated to the early to mid-forties. It's oldest of my collection. Hope you're enjoying your knife.

That sharp top is called a False Edge.

I'm about to order this knife now. 5.5 years is the wait time in 2021. $440 is the base price. Let's compare videos in 6 years!

I thought the video was well done. I am a collector also. Heres a tip, get yourself some renaissance wax, you can get 200 ml jars on ebay., it is a micro-crystalline wax polish that will preserve the metal and leather on the knife and when applied will not show fingerprints. Used by the British Museum and restoration specialists. Good stuff and I use it all the time.

[@drs-Rigo-Reus]

Those new 8 inches seem to have a wider blade than before?

[@bryanessig8814]

I think you are right. I noticed the same when looking at a WWII model.

[@toomanyhandsonmytime4754]

I see I already got a thumbs down. Thanks, I just propped up the camera on the printer next to me on a towel. At leas this one is in focus, but I am inexperienced and new and I finally got some video software. I would always love a comment to tell me why you like or hate my video. I hope to get better as I get equipment and experience.

[@unclegene5372]

Beautiful knife. The thumbs down bozos are probably jealous.

[@alme6743]

Hey there friend, as im sure your aware theres many other options besides ordering from Randall directly, Im a person that likes instant gratification, so a 5 year wait for a knife I cant see before hand, is a no go for me, I own 4 Randalls and I would personally never order directly, pay the $150 or $200 premium to have it ina a week from ebay or something is my personal choice, that being said respect to you for waiting all that time i couldnt do it

[@oldeays5085]

Some dealers get fifty of them a year! But, others can order and keep ordering them so, they get a number of them coming constantly! But,we are not able to do that! Randall wants us to order from dealers! That's how it's set up. Dealers get them every four to six months!

[@oldeays5085]

More than bark river? What are you talking about. Lol! Last time I looked bark river cost as much or more than Randall knives do! Which is stupid. That's why, I just keep buying Randall's! Lol!

Do you play cards…..ah, badly?
