Remington Photos

Here's an unusual little jack in an unusual color. The knife has the extended backspring on the small blade, it's quite heavy for its size. It has a nice saber ground master. This one is in pretty good condition but the blades have quite a few fine scratches.

It's an R985.

How about a Remington R6723 small sleeveboard whittler. It's in pretty nice shape, the etch is just visible, but you can't see it in the picture.

A very nice R7293 msteele6. Thanks for posting it.

[Froggyedge]

Nice knives! Let's hope for more.
Great thread!

Being the team player that I am, here are a couple of photos I thought you might like.
The 'Lock Punch" is rare and the only one I have seen.

Paladin, That stockman with locking punch is one of the nicest ones ive seen. I collect remingtons and thats the first one ive ever seen! Im now ona mission to find one of my own. Thanks for sharing those with us. Travis

[Paladin]

Thanks, Travis, it isn't mint but under the circumstances, I didn't mind at all.

Here's an old Remington R4483. I thought I'd prime the pump on this thread and see what might show up. This knife is in pretty good shape but has some very light pitting. You can still make out the "Remington" etch.

Very nice Remington, just the way I like them, untouched

[Iron Hoarder]

Here's a few of my folders and some fixed blades.I have some pearl Remingtons in another location I'll have to dig out.Some are circle Remington and others are straight line;there is even a Remington Pal transition knife and a few letter opener knives.

Could someone tell me what years the Boyscout folder in the second photo was produced? I found one at a flea market over here in the UK. Thank you.

If its an Official Scout, it would have been made somewhere between 1927 and the late 30's.

[Miller Bro's]

The scout K7K posted is a model R4B.

It has the long screwdriver blade, no grooves in the bolsters.

Circa 1935-1939

here is an old one I dug up

[Iron Hoarder]

Thank you! it has the Boyscout shield so I assume it is an official one. It's pretty pitted but I still think it's a good find.

[Miller Bro's]

Did you buy it??

[Jacknifeben]

anybody got another REMINGTON R943?

[Miller Bro's]

Nope, not me

[Iron Hoarder]

Of course I bought it. I'll buy nearly any pocket knife when it only costs £2.00 or about $3.00.

[Miller Bro's]

Well now, let`s see a picture of it!

[Iron Hoarder]

Here we go!

[Miller Bro's]

Good deal

I would have bought it for that price too

[Iron Hoarder]

About how much is it actually worth in that condition? I always buy cheap stuff because I don't know how much the nicer stuff is worth. I'm still in the learning phase for prices and values. My only saving grace is that US brands here in the UK go cheap when I can find them because they don't know what they have aside from the serious collectors.

[Miller Bro's]

Need more info.

Any cracks or chips in the handles?

Do all the blades have strong snap?

How deep is the rust/pitting on the blades?

The bail is slightly bent and the punch blade has been tipped.

[Iron Hoarder]

The snap is weak on all of the blades due to corrosion gumming them up I think.
The pitting is pretty deep (.005"-.0015"), looks like salt water may have been present.
There is one small chip on a corner of one scale at the bolster. No cracks though.
The shield has a fair amount of normal pocket wear
Bolsters show evidence of having been dropped a time or two.

[Miller Bro's]

In that condition I would say in the $20-25 dollar range, to a novice collector
