remington knife blade opener

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.

i'm not sure which section to post this in, but this seems like the most logical place to start. i just bought this on the Bay.. it's a repro and it was cheap, but i bought it cuz i really could use it. i've had quite a few beater knives that have thumbnail-eaters for blades until i can clean/oil them, and this seemed like a smart AND fun way to solve the problem. anyway.......... my question is, i can't seem to

Nice. That should save a fingernail or two.

Sargents 6th edition,
Does not really give any information. Thought there was one in dad’s stuff I could not find it. My son paid for one for me at Kane County Flea Market last year. I promptly lost it. There were a few at Badger Knife show this year and I bought another.
Always in my pocket quite a few knives that eat my one thumb nail.

I like the MM and the Winchester. I’m sure the Dunlap works great a bit bulky in my pocket.
