Just got this today, really great color on it. Would this handle material be pyremite? or celluloid?
Anyway, I was nicely surprised to open it, nicer color in person than photo. Anyone have a book
with tang stamp year and value? Definitely not selling, just curious. Thanks.

Pyremite and celluloid are the same thing. Remington just used the word "pyremite" as their trade name for celluloid.

Nice old knife.
