The Remington 155 is a 2 bladed jack with a clip + pen blade. There should not be an acorn shield on it. It should have a crest shield. The acorn shield was only used on Remingtons that had a punch blade, and the 155 did not. Its quite possible that I have a box that the 155 came in, but sorry its not for sale. The book gives a mint price of $225 for your knife, but given the right bidders at the right time it could go for $250 or a little more. A picture would be nice. Thanks.
