My Remingtons.

The Remington Corporation and the knives that they built have influenced the U.S. cutlery industry more than nearly any other manufacturer. From the time America was settled, to the end of WWI, American knife companies struggled to compete with Britain and German imports, but events that occurred during and after the First World War led to a great change in this phenomenon. Unprecedented opportunities arose, and Remington stepped up to seize the moment. In the process, they created some of today's most prized collectables. In an ironic twist, the next World War played the greatest role in ending the company’s domination of the industry.

Neat little Raybestos brake Christmas gift box from the early 1920’s. This comes complete with a 1906 Indianhead penny. Send the penny back as not to cut a friendship....., just a little stiscious not superstitious!! John

You bet. I believe the package came with a little Christmas card. Sure wish mine had that. A big part of the attraction for me to Remingtons is the short life of the company and the age of the knives we all collect. Thanks again. John

That's the kind of thing I like to see, the coin alone is probably worth $100 ::tu::
