Remington R3435 info needed please

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.

Your knife was made 1924-1933. Has pyremite handles and looks to be in good condition. Thanks for showing us ::tu::

Here is a R3433 that is the same knife for you to compare to, only bone handles instead.

Thanks for posting the picture. Sargent’s 6th edition, page 449, lists “R3435, pyremite”. No picture though.

Thanks for your inputs, I couldn’t find anything more than one picture -online of this knife showing that shield. I didn’t know how rear of a find I had found, and/or collector value to ask if I decide not to keep it.

Remington produced a wide variety of shields. I don't guess that on regular production knives the shield adds or takes away value. As you get into the special order knives some of the shields can create huge value to the knife. The blade etch on your knife is what makes your knife desirable to collectors. Proves it hasn't been cleaned.
