1 Randall model 1-7 late-1940's fighting knife available.  This Randall fighting knife would make an important addition to any collection. 

This knife was made 1946-1949.  This model 1-7 measures 12 1/4" overall.  The blade itself measures 7 3/16".  

This early Randall has a brass pommel washer and nut, and a thick middle handle spacer.  The sheath is a Heiser.  The sharpening stone pouch was cut off the sheath by the guy who carried it.  The brown button sheath is stamped 'H.H. HEISER   MAKER   DENVER, COLO.   1 7'.  There is a rivet at the left side of the sheath throat.  

This Korean era Randall model 1 fighting knife is in excellent condition.  The blade has a nice edge.  As mentioned, the sharpening stone pouch was removed from the sheath long ago by the guy who carried it.  The vet later reinforced the back side of the sheath's belt loop with glue.
