Remington r6465 and r7225

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.

PlainDon Nice old Remingtons. PD if you have not been told about two blades open
on a single back spring it could break the spring. I have never had it happen but some
have. You could photo you knife with one blade full open.
