This knife has been in my "Stuff" since 1976. I was told that it was a replica of a Remington bullet knife. It was made by Bowen to celebrate the USA's centennial. What Remington Knife did it replicate?, and who designed it? I'd like to know more about it. Can anyone help?

Bowen made authorized reproduction knives in the 70's for Remington. Yours looks like a R1303 or R1306. I've not seen one in hand but I'd bet it's a well built knife with a fairly good value.

I believe Mel Brewsters Bullet knife book has a page dedicated to the Bowen Bullets. I'll try to take a look later today and see.
Yours is a replica of a R-1303.
