Need a Randall Experts help on this Model 14 Attack please....
I am interested in this one and not a Randall Expert... tu2
As you can seenits a Model 14 Attack...No paperwork but seller mentioned he is sure its Stainless Steel and pre 1980...
What really caught my eye is the fact it has no "Ricasso" ..the blade area on the bottom where it meets the guard doesn't taper down any,just straight into the guard (unlike the ones offered now)
So does this tell us something? I appreciate any help...also what would one think is a approximate value? ( I will be using it in the field, not a safe queen) Again, Thanks! Tom

Truth be told I didn't know what a Ricasso was until seeing it here and then looking up the definitionSmiler

Its the choil that drops down. The ricasso is that is that blank unsharpened area between the guard and where the sharp edge starts.
