Remington Germany

Gr8Scout · Post by **Gr8Scout** » Wed Jul 11, 2007 7:39 am

I have been asked about these knives in another forum. They are Remington-tang stamped and boxed, and made in Germany. Stag handles. Purchased about ten years ago. Nice looking. Anyone know anything about them? First time I ever saw them. Any value?
Thanks,
Phil

Phil,
Goins does mention Remingtons that come out of Germany as being authorized repros. Actually, I was under the impression that the German versions were not authorized but that just shows how much I know. I am betting that these are authorized. As to value, I suspect you will need to look around Ebay and see what they sell for or maybe just run one and see what happens.

Yes, MM, I have seen Puma knives close to the lockback.
Thanks Paladin. I have gone too long without a Goins, just ordered one.

The knives are not mine, wish they were.

Paladin, here is something for you for your troubles.. You are old enough to recall the series starring Richard Boone, aren't you?

Phil,
Oh boy, do I!! Remember Have Gun, that is. On Saturday night, we never went anywhere until after Have Gun.
Actually, I wanted to use that as my avatar but I saw that you occasionally posted it, so did not want to infringe. Thanks for the posting.

Many years ago I saw 2 bumper stickers on one bumper that read.

Have Gun Will Travel on the right side and,
on the left side Have Wife Will Travel..

I too just loved watching good old Black and White.

Paladin,
As I wrote, I give you the avatar. Use it and have fun with it.

I have a couple of seasons of the series on on DVD, fun to watch. See all the old stars who guested on the series. Paladin was a complicated character, and was one of the first real adult westerns. Richard Boone was a very accomplished actor. For you guys to young to recall the show...

I didn't know you were such a fan Phil. It was a great show, and he played it perfectly, IMO.
When I was a young lad, I met Mr. Boone at a restaurant in Southern California, and he gave me a card from the show (he had a couple of them with him). I know it is tucked away with some memorabilia and such. It wasn't where I first thought it might be, but if I can find it, I'll post a picture.

Sorry I can't help with the knives.
