Where Are All The Remington Knife Collectors?
Re: Where Are All The Remington Knife Collectors?
Thanks Jerry. You have been a little quiet in the Remington forum. Sure would like to see more of your knives.

Keith, here is a H-T-T trapper that was sold along with subscriptions to the Hunter Trader Trapper magazine. I superimposed the H-T-T trapper and it's big brother R293B onto a page from a circa 1930's advertising page from the magazine.espn77 wrote:Thanks Jerry.

The H-T-T Trapper was made with a blade etch that says "H-T-T Trappers Knife". The etch on my knife if faint. Once upon a time, I saw a very good example with a more readable etch that got away from me . There is a picture below that highlights the etching. The contrast in this photo has been boosted significantly to highlight the etch.
The picture with the magazine ad in the background is really large so it will be slow to download if you click on the small preview image.
Re: Where Are All The Remington Knife Collectors?
Both your knives are extremely nice. Pretty cool it still has the etch

I can finally stake a claim, no matter how small, to being a Remington knife collector with this Baby Ruth R1823 serpentine jack.

Re: Where Are All The Remington Knife Collectors?
Tony, it's good to see another Remington collector. Nice example to kick off with!
Re: Where Are All The Remington Knife Collectors?
Rocky have you considered employing a locksmith to help get that case open ? I suspect he might be able to make you a key.

Re: Where Are All The Remington Knife Collectors?
I think this is another Hunter Trader Trapper HTT Remington bulldog? Handles are good and it has a faint Remington Trade Mark etch. No pattern number. Has the black composite handle spacer at the small end. Has seen a fair amount of use and the snap is week.

Re: Where Are All The Remington Knife Collectors?
Remumc. Nice HTT Bulldog! It's one of those patterns where the name matches to the feel of the knife ~ very stout. Seems like they are difficult to find in any condition.
Re: Where Are All The Remington Knife Collectors?
Remumc, your bulldog is really nice. Thanks for showing it off. I don't see them very often and have wanted one for a long time. I have only seen pictures of one other one than the ones you and Jerry have shown.
A while back I posted a picture of a display case I bought that was full of knives that matched the buttons. I had never opened the back till Rocky asked about A key for his. When I opened it i was pleasantly surprised.
This display case was shipped from Burials & black, Inc wholesale hardware out of Syracuse N.Y.

Re: Where Are All The Remington Knife Collectors?
Wow a plethora of beautiful knives and displays. I love the fact that you have a bonus surprise in the back of your case Keith.

It so good to see some of the men posting I have sure missed you boys and getting a look see at your Remington collection!
Awesome showing!

Re: Where Are All The Remington Knife Collectors?
Glad you asked about A key Rocky. I'll have to frame that.
Here is a knife I got from Roger. I think it's a pretty hard to find one. R4023. It doesn't have a pattern stamp on it.

Re: Where Are All The Remington Knife Collectors?
Used had and in rough condition! Interesting pattern that was used for several models from 2-4 blades. Main blade is one of the strangest shapes I have seen.

Re: Where Are All The Remington Knife Collectors?
Keith, I have a R4023 that is stamped. Yours might have been inked on. The R4023 is an elegant looking pattern (IMO). Mine is susceptible to blade rub.espn77 wrote:I think it's a pretty hard to find one. R4023. It doesn't have a pattern stamp on it.
Re: Where Are All The Remington Knife Collectors?
LMAO. Jerry. You win. Super knife. Wow!!!
Re: Where Are All The Remington Knife Collectors?
Remumc. I have a similar knife to yours. R55, even in used condition I really like yours. Mine has a pen in place of your punch, and your bone handles are great.
