Hi Folks, I'm trying to help a new member here find information on this knife. I believe it is a R3843 Utility. We are looking to find out its age and value. Any and all comments are appreciated. Thanks in advance., Tim

Knife is pre WWII. Remington sold its equipment to Pal Cutlery in 1940. They began producing knives in 1920 if memory serves, so, the knife was produced between those dates.

The book value in Stewart and Ritchies book on Remington is $500, however, that value is for a mint example. This knife is not mint, however, it is in excellent condition. Please be aware that the book values are usually high, and again, this knife is not in mint condition.

Nice knife.

That tang stamp dates between 1924 and 1933. You're probably looking at $150 give or take . This knife sold new for less than $2 back in the late 20's.
