The reproductions are stamped on one side only. They are not as finished as the originals, especialy on the edges. The originals are finished as well as the blades on old Remington knives, where the reproductions are rather crudely finished.

thanks knife-nut. does anyone have an original they will show?
this one is well finished, edges are smooth, can't feel any stamped ridges. but the stamp looks strange, or ?
