My Remingtons.

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.

One knife I would really like to see is the knife in between your 1303 and 1128. I've never seen that shield.

I hope everyone realizes the many amazing things happening in this thread. The first and most awesome is that our new friend has assembled an absolutely amazing collection. This is the type of collection that in the old days of collector magazines would have been an entire pictorial spread. It is simply remarkable!

The second thing that has happened is that because of the technology available to us today and the hard work of the administrators of AAPK, everyone in the world is now able to see this remarkable collection any time they wish. It is only a few clicks away in your web browser. How great is that??

We live in an amazing age! ::ds::

John, thanks for showing the cyclone knife. Very nice. One other question. Are the liners of your R4466 milled?
Thanks Keith

Thanks John, they made them both ways and the one I have is the only milled example I've seen. I've seen two others that weren't milled.

The one I have now I bought several years ago when Jim Sargent started allowing me to buy some of his personal collection. I had another that was not milled. You may have noticed my R1613 with a bullet, Jim gave me a letter of authenticity and states he owned the knife over 30 years. I knew Jim most of my life. He sold me a lot of his really nice rare pieces. I started collecting knives when I was 9 years old. I am now 59. I am fortunate to have grown up during the golden years of our hobby or more like way of life for some of us. Thank you, John

Oh I definately noticed your R1613. Trust me, I've studied the pictures you have posted for a few hours ::facepalm:: I'm definately impressed. By far the best Remington collection I've ever seen.
