Remington pyremite

There has been a lot of discussion in other forums on the stability of celluloid. At the beginning of my knife collecting I didn't like celluloid but as my appreciation for Remington increases I've started to enjoy the different patterns and look of the pyremite knives. Here are a few of the ones I have. Hope you will share yours too.

There are some real beauties in that group ESPN.

How do you store them?

In original display cases. Next to all my other knives. ::shrug::

Nice knives, Espn! My favorites are the two doglegs, numbers three and eight in your first post. I do not have any Remingtons to contribute here. I can understand the attraction of celluloid: I have a few myself.

Mel, you have the same taste as me. I do like the dog legs myself. Thanks for the compliment

Hmmm.
I asked because I just bought the sister knife to your Black, and white (#5) from Deo-pa. It is my second celluloid knife, and I haven't determined how to store them other than segregation.
I am considering individual clear plastic cases. ::shrug::

To each his own. I have my own theory that isn't very scientific so I offer no real advice other than enjoy the knives in your collection.

Truly beautiful cell, Keith; thanks for showing them. I keep most of my cell knives in cigar boxes with blades open and the lid cocked a bit, bone-dry room, zero sunlight, on a shelf so I can pluck down a box and coonfinger them any time. I do have a few with better longevity reputation in with other knives in cases. Cracked ice and yaller are risky.

Allowing any (potential) gassing to escape...
Maybe I'll drill a few 1/8" holes in the plastic cases. ::hmm::

That is a Gorgeous pair Scout!

Well Keith put the Florida Lakeland Gator show next February on your list of shows and I'll show you them in person .
Until I found my first one I believed the R965 was a unicorn, now I've seen 3 .

Keep ‘em coming Keith...a great show of Remington’s py-ri-mite styles and colors montage. All knives are clean and tidy with some great etching! I really enjoy the look see! You have a beautiful and desirable collection! This material handle that Remington invented is truly endless! ::tu:: ::woot::

I go to North Carolina one a year to pickup more Remington stuff, I guess I need to do it during your show. I've seen pictures of your display and there are many knives in your display I have never seen.
