I thought I was Dreaming...
Got to the local flea market Sunday morning. Third table in, I look into the glass covered display case on the table...typical China made slipjoints...along with this one...
Needless to say, I bought it.

I love seeing a fellow AAPK'er catch a break. Good on you Steve. Did you try to dicker?

Good find. Don't see as many 1303 like you do the 1306.
Re: I thought I was Dreaming...
Optical illusion, or is that blade broke/ short?
Re: I thought I was Dreaming...
I know some guys that'll probably pee their pants when they see this . Not many sellers would show that.
Glad you found it Steve. Did you choke on your heart much?

Re: I thought I was Dreaming...
I had to look it up to know what all the Ohhh-s, and Ahhhh-s were about.
Remington 1303
I see a couple different models of that knife were made.
Would you please list more of the details so us newbs have an idea of what we are looking at. (besides a cool looker)
Thanks.
