Picked this up, what you see is what I got. The other blade is snapped off. Was wondering if its worth it to try and reblade this knife? I'd love to restore it to its former glory. Your thoughts.

You answered your own question.
You'd love to, so do it.
A new blade between those bones, like dropping a new motor in a classic car.

Welp, I don't got the know how. What would be the cost to do such a thing by someone who knows what they are doin?

More than the knife is worth most likely. Why do you want to restore it? Family heirloom? In this case, the knife is the blades and I have bought ones like that for $1 at fleamarkets.

I'm a rookie in knife collecting, So I saw the bone and single line remington stamp and got all excited. I paid $5 for it thinkin it was well worth it for parts.

Nice looking knife. Most likely if you do it yourself it would not be perfect but
that is OK. We all got to start out somewhere. If someone guides you it should
turn out pretty good and you will be very proud of yourself. Go for it!!!!
