One Ringie Dingie **snort snort

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.

Mr. B,

I haven't ever seen a Remington in this pattern. Is there a pattern number? If so, we could look it up, however, if there isn't a pattern number, that's a bad sign. It's true some Remington's didn't have pattern numbers, but they are somewhat rare. The pins look like they are made from a material different from the bolsters, another bad sign. Typical of German made knives, but not for Remingtons. The jigging doesn't really look Remington to me, but close. Finally, the stamps don't look quite right.

All in all, I don't believe that that knife is an authentic Remington. Sorry.

It's not a old authentic Remington. It looks like one of the German fakes made in the 1970's.

Yeah this knife doesnt look right to me at all. To me, by the stamps and how its heavy on one side of the stamp says that someone has stamped it themselves...I could be wrong tho ::hmm::
