Just picked up this beauty

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.

Really nice knife. The last few knives I bought have been Barlows. I just like
the size, weight, blade configuration, and appearance.

Can't go wrong with a Barlow.

Thanks guys. I thought it would be fun to share.

As far as the Barlow's, I agree. I've found myself drawn to the "small" 2 blade Barlow's for whatever reason. They just have a nice compact feel to them and have the benefit of more than one blade.
