W.D. "Bo" Randall made a number of variations of the Arkansas Toothpick. This handcrafted example is his largest and most impressive. With it's 12" carbon steel blade and double lugged brass guard and Duraluminum buttcap. Marked on its ricasso "RANDALL MADE ORLANDO FLA.". The perfectly symmetrical flat grind is almost impossible to do by hand on a blade this size and is a testament to the skill of the knifesmith who is able to do such work. Housed in its smooth back leather scabbard with pouch on front for the orange Indian sharpening stone. CONDITION: Pristine with no distress or evidence of use. The sole leather handle is so new that the wax finish is slightly frosted white and will simply polish bright. TDW
