I bought this 7-inch ivory/stainless Model 1 in the early 1960's. I don't remember any catalog option for either delrin or 'ivorite' offered in the Randall catalog, but I wanted a white handle, so spent the extra $10 or $12 for ivory. (I just referred back to the 1960/61, 62/63, and 63/64 Randall catalogs, and can find only stag, brown micarta, ivory, ebony/woods, and leather offered as optional handle materials--no delrin or ivorite. (Green tenite on the attack knives.) Anyway, I like to believe that the general had an ivory Randall, and I like to think mine is exactly like it! I had it with me in Vietnam 1964-1966.
