I thought all knives that had punch blades also had acorn shields.
Is this true?

No. Washington punch has a diamond shield. 54 harness jack has a UNXLD shield.

Oops, sorry I didn't notice we were in the Remington forum. :oops:

I hope I’m remembering this right... On old Remington knives I believe there are very rare situations where a federal shield will appear on a knife with a punch. However I believe it is true that an Acorn shield appears only on a knife with a punch. So acorn shield always a punch. Punch almost always has acorn shield.

Are you able to post a picture?

And most Cattaraugus knives with a punch blade have a round shield.
