All About Pocket Knives

Been awhile since I've been able to pick up a nice Remington, This R219 popped up the other day, appears to be very lightly used, unmolested, possibly factory edge. Etch is light and patter number weakly struck.

herbva rehandled and cleaned up this one for me, the silver celluloid was out-gassing and about ready to grenade this stockman. Herb even managed to keep about 2/3s of the etch while dealing with the rust/corrosion issues.

4", I think it is a R3065 or variant, great Remington UMC Made In USA blade stamps on all 3 blades but no visible pattern number. Acorn shield so you know there's a punch. It's now a nice EDC for me.

*Herb's pictures except for the last one.

I'm normally not a fan of metal handled knives, but I like this one.

Thank you David, metal not my favorite either but this one has always appealed to me and have been looking for a nice one for quite some time, I do love easy opens with fat spears.

I picked up a couple of these this last year at an estate sale. I'm getting ready to put this one in my store. I do like the etches on these blades. Even though the etch is not really fancy I still think it looks good, especially on the trapper main blade.

Hope you enjoy the pictures!

R1306.

Very nice Roger!!

Is it a keeper or on the market? John

It possibly could be had.

Would you mind sending me a pm ? Thank you

Very interesting with the cartridged shield instead of the bullet. Beautiful knife.

Jerry,as some old Case dealer says,it is right as rain.

Roger, send me a PM when you have a minute. Thank you,John

Thank you John. I do not have R2303. I wasn’t looking for this R2403, but couldn’t pass it up when I saw it. I do have the Case Tested XX 61214 1/2 and 61215 1/2 which are equivalent to the R2303 and R2403, respectively. Schrade also made the Case renditions.

John, I finally managed to find a R2303.

Wow is that an awesome knife. You did good. Lovely bones and crisp etch.

That is good as it gets! Congratulations on your find. John

Jerry,you did find one,WOW!

Thank you Harold

Great rem switch

Nicest one I have ever seen.

Been quite a dry spell for posting or acquiring a good Remington.

Really happy with the condition of this r8004.

Nice little REM Jim. Great.

Nice little knife Jim! Great etch.
