Remington Bullet Knife R1123 Authorized Reproduction (1972-1973)
Only about 90 pieces were put in boxes.
Tom Williams:
"The first Remington bullet knife was made in January of 1972 and I recall that Blackie Collins obtained permission from Remington to make an authorized bullet knife reproduction but the customer was either "Specialty Weapons" or "Weapons Specialty". I do not remember the exact name of the customer but an agreement was made between Blackie Collins and Remington to have the knives made for another customer."
Phil Gibbs:
"Interestingly enough all the same parts were used on the 1982 Remington R1123 (with the blade pivot holes pulled back just enough to avoid the "flush tang" feature; one of the most demanding cutlery hafting operations I have ever seen!)"

Here's a funny looking one. An R17.
Actually I kind of like the knife, very well made but I'm having a hard time getting past the odd/weird scales.

I think they called that Dura-Stag® but I can't swear to it. Not the most attractive handles they ever made.
This Yello-Jaket was an SFO for SMKW in about 1992.

I had one of the Bear folding hunters also but was not real impressed with the finish on it and it has been traded.
