Item Description
Original Item: Only One Available. This is an extremely scarce Randall Model 9 Throwing Knife made in Orlando, Florida, and henceforth often referred to as the “Orlando Randall” by collectors. These were made for use during WW2 and after and subcontracted by Randall to meet the military demand. These are very desirable as a result, especially in this condition. We cannot be certain its WWII manufacture but if not its early post war.
Production was limited, due to restrictions on wartime material and an unwillingness to compromise on the high-quality steel needed to make a proper fighting knife. The knife measures 12 inches overall, with a 2 ½” sharpened false edge and the scimitar flanked address reading "RANDALL MADE/ORLANDO FLA" on the left side of the blade.
Condition is fine overall, the blade has crisp original polish with an overall bright finish showing some light gray patina, and very small patches of oxidation here and there. There are signs of period sharpening marks on the edge. The guard has an attractive, aged patina with some small scratches and dings.
Overall, the knife is in very good condition, while showing signs of honest period use and storage/handling wear over the last several decades.
While not of the quality of a handmade Randall, these knives are an important and historic part of the Randall Made story and make a great addition to any World War II edged weapons collection.
