Where Are All The Remington Knife Collectors?

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.

Awesome thread, Miller!

Mayn60, that 1993 salesman sample kit is sweet! ::drool::

I have a few vintage (both folding and fixed blades) and several more modern Remingtons. Would like to one day have a set of modern Bullet knives. Below are 2 Barlows, one with a spear and one with a clip, and a pearl Lobster. Also throwing in a picture of my Remington shelf.

Recent find, with enough history (patina) to show it's age. The etch is just barely visable.
