Remington UMC Made in USA

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.

That tang mark was used when Camillus was making knives for Remington after 1982
A delrin handled in that condition I would estimate at around 20.00-25.00

This is from Goins
This knife is from the late 80's early 90's made by Camillus and not an "Early Remington" knife. The tang markings are simular but you have to consider the knife its on also. ;)

I think that was the pattern that came as a bonus with a purchase of 10 boxes of 22 rimfire ammo. I'd value it in the mid to high teens.
