RARE Remington scout knife set box

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.

Add another 0 to the price and you'll be getting close. I plan on having the high bid for a while anyway. ::tu::

::uc:: ::skeptic:: If it goes that high I would be surprised, BUT, if it is the first one to appear on e-bay the sky is the limit ::nod::

Mark, What all came with the set? Other than what is in it now. A knife, anything else?

If the set is a RS-195 Boy Scout gift package, it contained an RS3333 pocketknife and a RH51 sheath knife. That is the only set I could find a list of right now.
