My Remingtons.

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.

Beautiful knives and a beautiful bench! I rotated to picture to make it easier to read the boxes. Interesting blades on some of the knives.

Thank you doggleg, John told me something about rotating from my phone, it is counterintuitive because on my phone that picture was upside right! Yeah thanks I think I only have three left in the series that I know of,enjoying this group, and I joined up to find out if there are any other waterfowl knives out there in this model they were made mostly by camillus, bear and Sons and possibly now schrade. Finding out a lot from the knowledgeable knife collectors here, thanks you guys

Hope I'm not butting in on this thread, just trying to figure out how this site works. Going to try to upload another picture after putting my knives in a carrying case, little better shot of the handles but the blades are all tucked in. Thanks Ron
Shows the models I have, and I think I am missing about 4 that I know of. They did make some special ones the American trap Association one of 400 is in there but I'm hoping there are some others that I don't know about. anybody else know of some waterfowl models that I don't have here?

Thanks John, didn't know how it works yet,
but I'm getting a feel for it! everybody seems really great here.
I am still trying to figure out how to determine how many versions of the waterfowl knife were produced, the knives with the slant bolsters I believe were made by camillus and the perpendicular bolsters were bear and Sons, but on the auction site of eBay I just keep running into them randomly don't know if there's any Remington catalogs listing production of these knives, they are not in the camillus catalogs that I was referred to.
Hoping somebody here will know.

That is one smoking hot knife John. Do you know any history of the company on the shield?

Thanks Keith. I have no information about the company but do know that an example is in Sargent’s 6th Edition page 481. Any information would be greatly appreciated. John
