Remington's RH Pattern Fixed Blade Knives

The Remington Corporation and the knives that they built have influenced the U.S. cutlery industry more than nearly any other manufacturer. From the time America was settled, to the end of WWI, American knife companies struggled to compete with Britain and German imports, but events that occurred during and after the First World War led to a great change in this phenomenon. Unprecedented opportunities arose, and Remington stepped up to seize the moment. In the process, they created some of today's most prized collectables. In an ironic twist, the next World War played the greatest role in ending the company’s domination of the industry.

I picked this up off the bay, I believe it is a RH-405 ,it was at a very low "buy it now " price, There are no markings on it,The Remington guide said the blade was etched, maybe some were just inked .Handle is 5" the blade 4 3/4". What do you experts think?

It is a 405. Came new with a etch and one of two types of sheaths. A tube type or conventional one with a pocket holding a sharpening stone

It is 7 3/8" long with a 4 inch blade.
I can't believe how beautiful the bone covers are on this thing. ::woot::
The sheath at some point was soaked in oil and weakened the strap and it parted.
Thanks for looking.
Looking at this posting I realized I had a little Remington RH pattern in one of my boxes stashed away. I found it and I think the tang stamp was Used c 1924-1933 (at least on folders) is that correct? This is a small knife but feels great in my hand and I love the scales ::nod::

I believe these came out in the early 30s.
I think I have 3 of them. Great little knives.

I have a fixed blade Remington without a number- it has Remington DuPont on one side with black hard rubber handles- I was wondering if someone could help me with a number? Thanks for any input! 8 1/2” total length
