Remington ink

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.

What color was the original salesman sample ink? How durable is it?

Harald, the majority of the ink I've seem is black. Its seems that even after the ink is gone it does something to the blade to leave a permanent mark, if not used heavily. Here is a thread that has some salesman samples in it.
