Knives in the news

[eveled]

I have one I’ve been trying to figure out for a while now. I can’t get anywhere with it. Maybe someone here can figure it out.

I found a vague reference to a Randall dive knife mentioned in a newspaper article. Florida Today Dec 7,1975. I’d love to read this article.

I do a lot of research online pertaining to my family history through Ancestry.com, Fold3.com (Military) and Newspapers.com.
I was able to pull up your request. The article is posted below.

Great site isn't it.
I can spend hours reading through these papers even after I find out what i'm looking for.
I'm sure you know what I mean.

Sorry about the "gaps" in the print. It's the way it was copied on the site.

Thanks Old Folder and danno50! I really appreciate the efforts. It’s a great article.

The picture I saw with the referenced article was of a Randall dive knife found by a treasure hunter. I guess the picture and the article were missed matched? Imagine finding a Randall on the beach?

I do know what you mean, Dan, it is a a great site.
Skip, the article on the Walden Safety Device was very interesting. Needed a little guessing, but the general idea comes through.
Eveled, I tried searching further to try find the article with the photo of the dive knife, but not luck.

Thanks Dan. I really appreciate the follow up. Just a wild goose chase I guess. Thank you again.

Great information Skip.
Now we know when, where and who invented the "Trick Knife", which does come up in occasional discussions.
