Authentic original Remington or reproduction?

The Remington Corporation and the knives that they built have influenced the U.S. cutlery industry more than nearly any other manufacturer. From the time America was settled, to the end of WWI, American knife companies struggled to compete with Britain and German imports, but events that occurred during and after the First World War led to a great change in this phenomenon. Unprecedented opportunities arose, and Remington stepped up to seize the moment. In the process, they created some of today's most prized collectables. In an ironic twist, the next World War played the greatest role in ending the company’s domination of the industry.

Fantasy knife. Not a repro since Remington never made an original.

Japan, 1980s, and I suspect Parker was involved with the creation of these. Nearly got burned on a fake Nehi once, if it weren't for here.

Thanks guys, it was a roll of knives I bought, so I really don’t have anything in it. It’s been in my wife’s shadow box, I’ll just put it back 😁
