New Member Intro...CastIronGuy

Post by castironguy »

Hi.
I would like to introduce myself.
I live in WNC and collect cast iron cookware, axes and hatchets, and a few knives.
I have a lot of questions and a few knives to sell.
I have a Remington Bullet R-1178.
Let`s talk.

Welcome, Cast Iron Guy from just a little South of you in SC.

I used to work in a foundry so I have the cast iron bug myself. I still use my cast iron frying pans and dutch oven, but I primarily collect old foundry giveaway items that were once common advertisements: statues, ashtrays, paperweights, etc.

Interesting stuff, especially as there are fewer and fewer foundries in the U.S. anymore.

Welcome to AAPK! I would love to see a picture of your Bullet knife. Would it happen to be a R1173 instead of R1178?

::welcome:: Would also like to see a photo of the Bullet. If it is the 1173 you have a rather rare example of the Remington Bullets.

Welcome! We like pictures, especially of knives. We welcome questions, don't be bashful. Lots of very knowledgeable folks here and willing to help. If you've got a few knives you want to sell post them on the Advertisements forum (under Knife Commerce) with pictures and terms. http://www.allaboutpocketknives.com/kni ... m.php?f=31.

When the people fear their government, that is tyranny. When government fears the people, that is freedom.

Hey CastIronGuy. I'm new to this forum too and also live in WNC in the Asheville area. This seems like a great place to be a part of.
