Looks like the "Stabby" to me, and now I want one.

Not the Lopes, which are some nice blades.
I realize that it’s a departure from the particular style of knives most of the thread participants carry but, what about Randall Made Knives? Does anyone own one? Is the juice really worth that much squeeze?
I get there’s a cult following of certain makers and/or brands and I get there’s a charge for materials and for craftsmanship. Every time I see one I think how neat it would be to own one and then wonder what possible advantages it would provide over my first Gen DPx HEST?

Keep in mind that I got mine in the late 90s and I haven't been keeping up with prices.
I imagine that, on paper, it doesn't look like there's much that differentiates it from other cheaper but quality knives but when you hold one in your hands, that changes. I can't really explain it better than that; the way to moves in, and with the hand is something that I don't get from any other knife of its size and purpose; everything else is too heavy, or too light, or balanced wrong somehow.
I wish I could give you something truly objective to use but the above is the best I've got :-)

Thanks for posting this, thought it was great! Parts 1 & 2 are the best hour I've spent on my martial learning in a long, long time. I thought part 3 was a little drier, but definitely worth watching just on principle.
I've tried Frank Windler and Northman when searching Instagram and have yet to find his account, I take it there are some drills on there I'd very much like to see...can anyone help a brother out?
