If it were me, I'd probably purchase a new one. I don't quite know how your dad's was made but the fixed blade you may need in a bug out situation could end up being abused pretty good. Plus, I just don't think I could do that to a knife with that kind of sentimental value. I’ll weigh in with my two cents. If it were me, I’d probably purchase a new one.

I inhereted my fathers 9 inch Randall Made Bowie knife, that he always carried with him on every mission,(he was a navagator on a B-52)that he had custom made for him sometime in the 60's. I know i's a special knife, but is it 'too' special to put in my B.O.B., or should I purchase somethine else to use? Thank you, Eric S.

I got the plain edge, understanding that a combi edge usually requires a different sharpening mechanism for the serrated part. Their knife design actually mills out the serrations differently than most serrated edges, and can be sharpened by honing the backside of the serrations just like you would with a regular edge - it can even be done by a file, if need be. Their knives are guaranteed forever - no questions asked. You break it, they replace it. I highly recommend. http://www.eseeknives.com/ I recently purchased a RAT Cutlery, now ESEE knives, (not to be confused with the RAT line of Ontario Knives) RC-5.
