Real or not?

Don't know enough about these to say anything for certain. I have a few of the 4 blade Remington Purina knives and they don't look at all like this. Is this a Remington Scout knife with handles added? From What I can see there is no pattern numbers on the big blade. The pins on the handles don't look factory to me and it also looks as if it had a bail at one time? There are many pics so I'll post the link. If this is a sham someone should post it in the counterfeit forum for discussion.

As a general rule Remington Advertising knives did not have a pattern number on them. Those scales are checker boarded, they have faded quite a bit. I would think that it would have had a bail originally.
