Golden, Randy (R.R.)

Randy Golden is a rising star in the knife world. He has studied under some of the premier knife and sheath makers in the country and his popularity now sets him apart from the field. He has been recognized by Blade magazine as one of the very best hunting knife makers (December 2006), an unusually talented up-and-coming maker at the 2006 Guild show (December 2007), and one of the countries finest knife and sheath makers (January 2008). Randy retired from the Air Force after a 27 year career as a pilot and became a full time knife maker in 2000. He was inducted into the Knifemakers Guild in short order and obtained full voting status in July 2007. Randy's artistic talents and attention to detail are easily seen in the quality design and detail orientation he handcrafts into each of his knives and sheaths.
