"Old Knives"

[Augie]

I think Remington used some of the best bone and this is an example that shows why. There is something about their jigging.

They sure did, Remington did not have a lot of varieties of bone but what the did they did very well.

Showing my ignorance (not the 1st time!), but did Winchester and Remington have their own cutlers, or were their knives made by someone else, like NYKC or Catt?

Jeff, both Remington and Winchester had their own cutlery factories, exact dates I don't remember but it was early 1900's.

That’s all I remember as well John and Jeff…
Will we forget more that anyone will ever know ?? Hope not
Here’s a great thread on Winchester’s history with great examples and a fine read indeed…

Antique Winchester Knives and Company History 1919-1942

While the primary focus is 1919-1942 Winchester-branded knives, I don't think it would be out of place to discuss E.C. Simmons Keen Kutter-branded knives made during the Winchester era. Additionally, for comparison/discussion purposes, if you have any Napanoch and/or early Walden knives, feel...

Stunning Farmers Jack example Augue my friend and a perfect one to show the great Bone as with Cals Muskrat.

Like Charlie said Gus - those two Remington Jacks are worth showing on a daily basis- gorgeous Bone on both.

Rob, what a wonderful addition- beautiful Knife and a great pattern!

Charlie- I chuckled over your “ Lowly” Scouts - as Gus said those are treasures today and would be the highlight of ones Scout collection- wonderful examples Charlie.

Jeff I can see why you asked that question because Catt Bone sits beside some of Remington Bone with just as spectacular jig work - some of it being very deep and chunky just like Remington’s best.

Wow Charlie
THE grail for many - would it be fair to say near impossible to find one in that most splendid condition! Simply amazing Charlie - Thank You!
