Re: My Remingtons.
Rocky, I really believe I get more enjoyment sharing the collection than anyone looking. I have gained new knife friends and although I have collected knives since age 9 ( over 50 years) my Remington collection only began about 8 years ago. The knowledge gained on AAPK about Remington knives is amazing. I enjoy a AAPK and our fellow members more than can be described. I have been so fortunate to have grown up around the old NKCA shows and had built friendships across the country. Unfortunately I am losing my old friends as they pass. Another reason for my real appreciation for AAPK. Thank you Rocky, please stay in touch , I look forward to future visits. John

Re: My Remingtons.
A few years ago we started a weekly knife swap. Meet in the community room of our bank and would have 20 or so collectors every week. This went on strong for about 5 years. A lot of good knife talk went on every week. To bad I can’t get 10 or less collectors on a regular basis. Oh well just different times and different interests......

Re: My Remingtons.
The R103 is not very special other than it is the first model produced February 1920. The knife was produced with both bail and no bail.
