Remington knives with an etch

We have gathered up a pretty great group of guys with some great knives here in the Remington forum and I thought it would be fun to get all the best of the best in one thread. I'd ask that you give the pattern number so when people do a search for a certain knife it's easy to find. This should be pretty fun.

1. R173
2. R7493
3. R1568
4. R293
5. 315

It is a treat to be able to see pictures of these old Remingtons with preserved blade etches. The etching on this group of 5 is faint. Often a blade will have an etch that can be seen only when the knife is held a certain way (see R7833 below).

Keith, My pictures have just the blade with etch open. Let me know if you would rather see all blades open. I know you don't like angle photos :) ::poke:: but a slight angle does seem to make the etch more visible.

That R1123 in the front is a looker. ::tu::

Jerry. I would like to see that R4033 opened. That's a hard blade configuration to find with the long spey ::tu::

Remington R4033 with blades open. Too bad it wasn't better cared for. The small pen blade has a half-stop.

John The five blade sow belly really puts this post over the top. I have seen a couple of these, but never one like yours.

Thank you Harold, I bought that several years ago from Jim Sargent. It was one from his personal collection. Thank you again, John

Here is probably the best etch of a Rare Highlander Boys Scout knife Remington scout knife. This was an alternative to the Boy Scouts that was active in Colorado around the 1930s
