All About Pocket Knives

Wow John , what a collection!Quite a feat in just 8 years.Yes please show some individual photos.Keith won`t get anything done today thinking about all them Remys.

wow very nice. With Remington filling bankruptcy will this likely end offering new knives?

Ok John,

I now see the R3853s,appreciate individual photos.

Since we are on Remingtons, have any of you Remington collectors ever saw a R3858??

You know that's right!!!!!

Remington knife shock and awe!!

Congratulations John, looks like you have just about every pattern and handle material represented

Welcome to AAPK, glad to have you aboard.

lyle, I am sorry, I left off a few packs that I will try and get on tonight. those include the farmer jacks. I will also, start taking a few individual shots. thank you all, john

I found them John, I just couldn't recognize them looking on my phone. Thanks in advance for the individual photos.

One knife I would really like to see is the knife in between your 1303 and 1128. I've never seen that shield.

It’s an advertising knife in mint condition The

I have posted several bullets. A mint R 4466 and a mint R1306 as well as a very near mint R1173. John

Good show John,I should have made some popcorn!

Thank you. Hope you enjoy them. It has been fun sharing them. John

Ralph, did you see that I posted some individual Bullets for you?

Yes I did. Thank you very much! All of the examples are very nice.

I hope everyone realizes the many amazing things happening in this thread. The first and most awesome is that our new friend has assembled an absolutely amazing collection. This is the type of collection that in the old days of collector magazines would have been an entire pictorial spread. It is simply remarkable!

The second thing that has happened is that because of the technology available to us today and the hard work of the administrators of AAPK, everyone in the world is now able to see this remarkable collection any time they wish. It is only a few clicks away in your web browser. How great is that??

We live in an amazing age!

John, thanks for showing the cyclone knife. Very nice. One other question. Are the liners of your R4466 milled?
Thanks Keith

Yes, the liners are milled. Thank you, John

Thanks John, they made them both ways and the one I have is the only milled example I've seen. I've seen two others that weren't milled.

The one I have now I bought several years ago when Jim Sargent started allowing me to buy some of his personal collection. I had another that was not milled. You may have noticed my R1613 with a bullet, Jim gave me a letter of authenticity and states he owned the knife over 30 years. I knew Jim most of my life. He sold me a lot of his really nice rare pieces. I started collecting knives when I was 9 years old. I am now 59. I am fortunate to have grown up during the golden years of our hobby or more like way of life for some of us. Thank you, John

Oh I definately noticed your R1613. Trust me, I've studied the pictures you have posted for a few hours I'm definately impressed. By far the best Remington collection I've ever seen.
