COMMENTS - This knife is a spectacular example of a very early Model 15. It has a tan colored Tenite handle which was used very early and only a few were made at all. The blade is a Solingen (made in Germany) which Randall started to use in early 1955. The knife is in almost like new condition and still has the original leather lanyard in the thong hole. Sheath is an early type "C" and is in like new condition. The knife, sheath, stone, and leather tie downs are all 100% authentic.
