Is this real? R193
Is this real? R193
This was in a vintage collection that my great uncle had with many Case knives from the 60's and 70's. Cant find anything about any R193 anywhere.

The Remington experts here will know, but I believe this is a total counterfeit.
The stampings look cold stamped and the Remington etch look off.
Everyone gets ahold of a bad once in a while.

That's what i figured. It's still a cool knife. What to do with it is the question. I have been tasked with selling them all for my great aunt.

Welcome to AAPK.
You’ll need to explain to her that it’s a counterfeit and thus not worth much. Might make a user for yourself or someone in your family that would like to have a keepsake from your uncle.
Hopefully the others aren’t like that one.

Looks inked and a cold stamp pattern number. Very randomly bizarre jigging too.
to AAPK, brianrent! Sometimes you strike it big in the knife world, sometimes you strike out. But you will get an honest answer here.
Pocket, fixed, machete, axe, it's all good!

The others are Case and they are real as far as I can tell. I used the value guide on this site to price them on ebay:Mumbleypeg wrote: ↑Sat Nov 14, 2020 9:16 pm Welcome to AAPK.

Re: Is this real? R193
Back in 79 I ran an add in the local paper looking for former employees of the George Schrade Knife Co. for a book about my great grandfather. I received a call from an old cutler who worked for Remington. When Remington shut down their cutlery division he and other cutlers were allowed to take all the knife parts home. This cutler was mixing up pattern numbers and blades that didn't match. He then told me he was selling everything he made to a very well known knife dealer now deceased whom I won't mention. 100's of them. Beware.

Yeah, I bet I can figure it out too.
