Unused R3565 Premium Stockman

The Remington Corporation and the knives that they built have influenced the U.S. cutlery industry more than nearly any other manufacturer. From the time America was settled, to the end of WWI, American knife companies struggled to compete with Britain and German imports, but events that occurred during and after the First World War led to a great change in this phenomenon. Unprecedented opportunities arose, and Remington stepped up to seize the moment. In the process, they created some of today's most prized collectables. In an ironic twist, the next World War played the greatest role in ending the company’s domination of the industry.

Unused R3565 Premium Stockman

Post by remington collector »

Here's a sad sight. An unused Remington R3565. It has not been sharpened, still has a full etch, blued punch blade. The handles have outgassed, nearly destroying the knife. I'll dress +polish the blades and rehandle it . :(

I thought I'd use Butterscotch Fantasy Marble on this one. It should be fairly close to the original color .
