Hey yall. In the recent edition of SMKW, the back foldout page lists Remington Heritage knives. These are supposedly made in the USA, so I am willingly to give them a shot. I know they wont be made near as good as the originals, but they are some good looking knives. Does anyone have any experience or knowledge of these new knives that Remington is endorsing?

I believe that they are made by Bear & Son of Alabama.

Oh ok....either way they look to be made pretty good. How did you come by that though?

Tooling appears to be identical to some Bear patterns and really there is almost no other US company left that could be making them.
