Re: Pattern number Remington
That's a great knife! Can't find the exact pattern but a 3285 with "Pyremite" (celluloid) scales looks to have the same frame with the third blade being a sheepsfoot and the others a spear and spey like yours. Your last number would be "2" for the black composition handles. So, the closest I get is R-32(?)2 or maybe R-33(?)2. If you can find a catalog, try searching around those numbers. Again, it's a great piece with a great shield. Good luck with it. Let us know what you find. J.O'.
Re: Pattern number Remington
Thank you for the info. I wonder on the shield if it had something above it. It’s missing a piece but it’s smooth not a break. The one blade is a screwdriver. I do believe the smaller blade has been reshaped as it sets up to high. I’m thinking it was a sheep foot with a hawk bill tip to start. Maybe. It’s a solid old knife with great snap.

Re: Pattern number Remington
Hmmm, I didn't notice that break. It looks almost like someone did it to get to the screwdriver nick. Like to see a brighter pic. O'.
Re: Pattern number Remington
I’ll take a better pic closed when I get home. The break didn’t affect the mail nick. Still has the liner behind it. But the break is perfect even smooth with the curve of the shield.

Re: Pattern number Remington
That's a mystery ! ? Still a cool knife. No trace of a pattern number anywhere? O'.
Re: Pattern number Remington
All three blades have the Remington stamp. No trace of a pattern number.

Re: Pattern number Remington
In my experience Remington advertising knives or special order knives very rarely came with a pattern number .

Re: Pattern number Remington
It’s not that wore around the tangs. Definitely no pattern number.

Re: Pattern number Remington
That stamp is 1921-24. It's an oldie.(Mike, good to know about the lack of numbers on special orders.). J.O'.
