Hey, guys... new guy here. just started collecting last summer, at the ripe old age of 60. i've had a couple of different focuses, but the most recent is a real love for the old 1920-40 Remingtons. this site has been a wealth of information and community, and i'm glad to be included. i thought i'd post some photos of the few i've picked up so far.

Never too old to start, but I'll tell you, since 2020 the price of knives has gone through the roof. I'm enjoying seeing your traditionals, thanks!
