It does have the Remington label?!?That was my first thought but the price point is too high for them.
It just doesn’t look like GEC quality and they haven’t done stainless in a while.Googling brought up this:
The 2025 Remington "Ole Granddad" Bullet Knife is made by Great Eastern Cutlery, a partner of Remington and SMKW, and is a limited-edition, collectible knife
I would have never guessed that!!Googling brought up this:

What's wrong with the quality?It just doesn’t look like GEC quality and they haven’t done stainless in a while.
doesn't look like a Buck either and has no sheath......It just doesn’t look like anything GEC has ever made.
If so, it's the most nicely finished Bear & Son I'VE ever seen, that's for sure!Bear and Sons ???

This. If GEC had made something that looks similar in shape and size to a Buck 110, I would absolutely own a couple of them right now.It just doesn’t look like anything GEC has ever made.
I own 2 B&S folders.. Barlows.. F&F is Great..The blade grinds are HORRIBLE!!! Butter knife points and blade grinds are soooo bad!!!If so, it's the most nicely finished Bear & Son I'VE ever seen, that's for sure!
Agreed. Almost embarrassingly so! A shame, because their wharncliff larger barlow singleblades are pretty decent! But those little two blade barlows...horrible QC for sure.I own 2 B&S folders.. Barlows.. F&F is Great..The blade grinds are HORRIBLE!!! Butter knife points and blade grinds are soooo bad!!!

Buck Knives did not make this knife. Unfortunately the partnership with Remington & Remington Cutlery ended in 2021 or 2022.MaybeBuck Knives Inc. Matt can tell us if it is in fact a Buck made product.
