Vietnam War Randall Knife -Model 14 -RARE ID ‘INDO-CHINA 1969-1971’ -Air America
Vietnam War Randall Knife -Model 14 -RARE ID ‘INDO-CHINA 1969-1971’ -Air America
$3,200
1 U.S. Vietnam Randall special order model 14 fighting knife available. This Vietnam Randall fighting knife would make a fine addition to any world militaria collection.
This model 14 is pretty interesting–one side of the handle is marked ‘INDO-CHINA 1969-1971’. The reverse side of the handle has what is likely the same inscription written in one of the indigenous languages of the Indo-China region.
There are a couple of characteristics of this knife that suggest it could have been carried by an Air America flight crew member. First, instead of the handle being inscribed just ‘Vietnam 1969-1971’, it says Indo-China. The countries of Indo-China include Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Thailand, and Myanmar. Air America operated covertly in Vietnam, Laos, and Thailand. A second knife characteristic is the special order feature on this model 14 of a serrated blade spine. These serrations were common among flight crew members for cutting through the aluminum fuselage in the event of being shot down.
This fighting knife measures 11 7/8″ overall. The blade itself measures 7 3/8″. This Randall has a riveted sheath. Also I am told that the tie-down holes in the guard are also non-standard. The stone was replaced with a magnesium fire starter stone.
