Time to come clean. Mine are Randall’s. I just posted them for fun. I figured someone would have called me out by now. To my eye they look a lot different than Blackjacks.
:D Good one!
I love my blackjacks but lets face it, the makers were obviously influenced by Randall Made knives.
Another one from my collection who's design draws heavily on Randall is this SOG Agency.

I would have to disagree with you.
I see a resemblance.

Oh there is definitely a strong resemblance they are copies of Randall made knives.

Guys who like blackjacks say they are the same as Randalls. Randall fans say they can see and feel the difference.

There is definitely a difference!
I believe al Randall Made knives are hollow ground, Blackjacks were convex ground.

Some of my Randall’s are flat ground.

Randall’s are forged, Blackjacks are made by stock removal.
