Anyone have a guess what this well used Remington R1306 is worth? I couldn't find one for sale anywhere. The blade is worn at the backspring making it somewhat loose, but it locks in the open position. Stag is good. Complete with Japanese kanji (anyone able to translate). It came from Honolulu.

Beautiful handles.

I believe that the Kanji script was engraved by a previous owner. It looks like the handles may be real stag, and with the full blade. That helps.
The worn tang can be repaired, increasing the value, but taking the knife apart would ruin the Kanji.
I would leave the knife as-is.
Sorry that I cannot help more with value, but I did an eBay search and found several with Delrin handles. Most were between $50 and $100.

Here's a Remington original Bullet Knife chart, I think I "borrowed" this picture from AAPK member espn77.

I think it is real, not some kind of modern remake. Should be more valuable. Harold

I agree.
Now the custom bolster . . . not wild about that, and I bet it could be removed professionally. Just my 2 cents.
