WOW! That is a beautiful knife all around. Great find! Love the bone and the blue coloring on the punch blade. Very nice!

This is not the same knife as listed in Sargent (1992) for an R3243

My Remington book is buried somewhere in the garage. If someone has a copy and could post a pic of a R3243 from it, I would greatly appreciate it.

This the catalog shot out of the “Stewart and Ritchie’ book. I will look for an actual photo of a R3243. John

Thank you very much! Our movers mislabeled boxes, and we are very short on space in our rental, so most everything is in the garage for awhile.
Here is a pic of the new house...got a ways to go.

Brad, that's a great knife you have in good condition. The blade configuration is the same as the one I have.

I was wondering if you had one....
Very nice.
Have you found any new bullets to add to your collection?

I haven't done much of anything lately. I moved so I've been out of the game for a little bit.

Here ya go Brad...oh and by the way you have a beautiful piece of property. Best of luck with your build.

Thanks to all for the comments.
Have a safe 4TH!!

Cleaned up some, oiled the hinges.
Nice and tight, good snap, main blade etch.
The back scale is dark at the nail nick.

Haven’t found any prior sales for pricing reference.

Brad that is truly one beautiful knife. In my book there is nothing like an original Remington production knife.Even better when you still have the trademark etching visible on the blade.Really nice score sir, very nice!

Great knife and home.

I finally let the the knife go for $500 to a local dealer.
The house has been a dream to live in, we are going out feet first.

That's a terrific big knife in excellent uncleaned state.

Congratulations on the house.
