Found these at today's estate sale....took me a while to figure out how to work the switchblade (EIG ITALY) but she functions perfectly.
If interested in any of my knives just PM me.

Since I couldn't go to the Great Lakes Show this year I decided to treat myself to a knife from "My Historic Knives" store on AAPK and bought this Remington Trapper.

That trapper is gorgeous!

I might but the main blade may have too much loss from over sharpening....

It was in plainview tx. 45 miles away. I averaged $34 a knife. I thought they were worth that. 80% are mint most are pre 70

espn, piling on... nice haul! I would be grateful to see more pictures of the 65's especially if they are pre-1964. The _165's with high pull and flat blade always catch my eye
I am particularly interested in the one I highlighted in a snippet that I extracted from your picture. I hope you don't mind that used your picture in this way.
My guess is that the handles are stag, but it looks like it
maybe could be green/yellow/gold Winterbottom. It would be pretty awesome for you if it is Winterbottom.
