$#!+&%(<@]×) those are awesome. Oooooweeeee. Looooooookiiiiiiiiingooooooood!
well, the good news is, if you get on a 73 month waiting list you will forget all about it after some years and think it's a bomb when it actually comes.

Re: Lets see some stag
The wait seems to keep getting longer. On the plus side you pay the price from when you ordered it.
You give them a $50 deposit. Then they bill you just before it ships. The price had gone up $125 since I ordered it.
The key is to order for significant events at least 6 years ahead of time.
Funny story. I forgot about my first one. It came in the mail. I thought it was a wrench I had ordered for work. I threw it in the back of my truck. It got knocked around for a few days getting stepped on and kicked.
I backed up to the dumpster and was cleaning up my truck. Picked up the box smashed the end open on the edge of the dumpster and my Randall Model 1 came flying out!

But on a serious note, in 1996 a buddy said, "Hey you want to make $100?" I asked how and he said that if I ordered a Randall and put down $50 for a deposit, that there was a year wait to get it and then I could resell it for $100 more than I paid for it. .... 
... Of course, I never did it and never got the Randall .....

Re: Lets see some stag
I was just joking around, can't believe it actually happens. But I can imagine I would forget all about it if it took 6 yrs to get there. Glad you didn't lose that kind of knife after enduring the wait from hell. I hate waiting 3-4 months when I have ordered a couple Tim Britton customs. If he told me it was 6 years I think the deal would be off. You're a lot more patient than I'll ever live to be. Congrats on enduring that.eveled wrote: ↑Tue Oct 15, 2024 7:26 am The wait seems to keep getting longer. On the plus side you pay the price from when you ordered it.

Re: Lets see some stag
Gorgeous LB Q, wow you have some bumpy, groovy, gnarly antler there. God bless the Bucks out there growing that stuff. Man alive that's a pretty knife. .
That one too Tony, is that Sambar? Fabulous whatever variety. With perfect bumpy, groovy texture for grip and eye candy. A gorgeous knife all around.
Thomasg, that wasn't there when I started writing or I would have quoted you too. Excellent rehandle and beautiful old knife. Also like the old black and white pics.
What a page of beauties gents.
