    Randall's First Half Century by Jim Williamson ccording to anthropologists. the first A man-made tools of which we have hard evidence are knives of sorts. These hand-axes and "pebble tools" provided sharp edges for many centuries and were. of course. hand-made. By the early 20th century. the age old tradition of hand craftsmanship was rapidly disappearing from cutlery production. Factories replaced blacksmiths. and even such quality-minded firms as I*XL weren't taking the time they once had with each knife. It seemed as if hand work. let alone custom orders. was a fading memory of a bygone era. Enter W.D. Randall. Jr.. scion of a prominent Southern family whose wealth came from such enterprises as a paper mill. orange groves. and cattle.

Some money changed hands. and Randall went off to admire his new knife.
