RS3333 and RS4233

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.

RS3333 and RS4233

Post by RandyFew »

Comparison of RS3333 and RS4233 knives. IMO Remington made the best Boy Scout knives. Both of these are about 80 years old. Maybe my "walk & talk" will be as good when I reach 80. ::ds::

On the "flag" Remington's, is there a way to rehab the covers on the scales? ::shrug::

A few years back I was surfing different knife sites. The scout knife thread is what drew me to AAPK. ::tu::

I only have 3 old Remington official Boy Scouts but I have about 30 official BS/GS knives. I probably have about 30 non official scouts. ::paranoid::
