You must be like me...collect a little bit of everything.

Well the knives in the 1st and 2nd pic's are all mint with paperwork.The knife in the 3rd pic has some cracks around the lanyard hole.That is what led me to buy the other of the same knife.It is going out in the mail Monday to git a new jigged bone handle.You are very right about my buying habits I just grab up what ever strikes me at the time.Probably to my ruin.LoL

This is my new addition. I keep it in my sock drawer! Green bone with no cracks.

Like those green bone scales!!

This is a Remington “Bulldog” special order knife for Hunter Trader Trapper magazine. It’s 3 5/8s closed and the main blade is on two springs. This pattern was in Bernard Levine’s Knife World column a few months ago and I was able to buy the magazine from him.

Now that's super nice!!
First one that I have had the pleasure of seeing.

Good lookin' knife, OE.

Thanks guys. It's the only Remington I have. Another one popped up on eBay after the KW column ran.

This daddy barlow hasn't been used and belongs to a friend.

I like it.

I like that knife to.I hope to add one to my collection of bullet knives soon.One of my favorite bullet knives.

R323? I would love to learn more about this knife. Is this stag? I can't tell if the last number is a 3 5 or 6.

R3233, handled in bone. I'm pretty sure Remington never produced that pattern in stag. Acorn shield, punch blade, long pull main blade. Looks good.

Thanks. I thought all the bone was darker and the stag was the lighter color. Any idea of the value?

Here are a few

R3155
R3165
R373
R4605
unmarked but have been told possibly german made

Those are all Beauty's!!

Nice one's Ken...I really like the punch jack...

The first I'll put up is a R1123 that my Dad bought at a hardware store in Stamford, Tx in about 1932 or 1933, not really sure on the exact date. I started using it, yes, using it, in my teens. I must have skinned and cut the pecker out of about a thousand racoons with it. Then I went on to deer hunting and used it on field dressing and skinning.
On the second, I am told they called the scales Irish Soap.
Third is just a nice littel pearl with some spots.
I am convinced that Remington knives at the time were the best made in the USA.

Paladin,you are one lucky man to have that awesome Bullet trapper,They all are very nice.I love the Remington Bullet Knives,I wish I had some of the old ones.

I don't come over here, cause I really don't have many Remingtons. The knives on this thread are amazing, so my rusty junkers hardly compare, but I thought I'd share.

This first one is no longer mine, I just traded it off...
Got lucky and scooped this up today in a bag of knives for $10...can anyone tell me anything about the age of this knife, there are no pattern numbers on it?

This last one was a steal on ebay awhile ago...got it for around $6.00 shipped. #R8063
It's gone on a trip to the spa...

Thanks for looking.

Raising this thread back up with a Remington 1123:

Mike that is a nice 1123. Beautiful bone nice etch.

Thanks Stockman.

Just received this knife - it is a Remington Bulldog and advertised in the HTT magazine. ObsidianEdge (Mike) posted pictures of his knife and the magazine advertisement a couple of pages earlier in this thread.

The knife feels right and the bone is the traditional and beautiful Remington bone from the era when this knife was produced. It operates easily, the blade is tight, and it snaps solidly both ways.

The blade gives me a little concern when I compare it to the picture from the magazine. The tang stamp is missing on my knife and the blade does not appear to be polished. I couldn't readily see the tang stamp on Mike's example either, but the tang stamp in the magazine picture is prominent. Also, the etch on my blade appears to be lower than both Mike's example and the magazine picture.

I realize these knives were made by hand and there will be normal variations.

Does anyone see any reasons to be concerned about this knife?

That's a beautiful, sexy knife Ralph. After doing a Google search on it I can see nothing wrong Will have to put one of those on my "look out for" list
