As suggested, there are some more - I found four rolls in that dark corner of my safe (it is a 5 foot tall long-gun safe)! here they are:

You've seen the first one so here is the second brown one;
Roll 2A.jpg
These four are Remingtons. Note, the acorn shields (not always present), indicate a punch is in the knife!!Roll 3A.jpg
Roll 4A.jpg
Wherever I am there are Schrades nearby:D, and here is no exception!!

That last one next is a Crucible Knife, N.Y. Roll 6A.jpg
Last, a T.Turner, and the ink on a minty Schrade from the group above!! Roll 7A.jpg Roll 8A.jpg
The two blue Rolls will come after these have been wiped and oiled. Thanks for your interest!!:)

Charlie - that 4 blade Congress is everything I wish I could find or see made today. Please show all 4 blades! I love how low they sit, and the bolsters! Jigging is good too, but nobody's setting blades like that any more. Even the custom guys can't (or won't) do it.
 
Very nice roll! I especially like the Empire and NYKC.

In the second roll, what handle material is that on the two black Remingtons? Is it pyremite? I can see the layers like what you see now with micarta.
 
In regards to the Remingtons with the punch and Germanic acorn shield. That shield was in use at Utica when Carl Tillmanns and a crew from Solingen were in charge of production there. He brought that shield over to Remington when he and some of the cutlers moved there. I think the acorn was also used by Boker, but herder would know for sure. More importantly, thanks for rolling out more great knives, Charlie!

The action is nice and decisive, eisman eisman ! And all blades are stamped! Just a little chip on the back main rivet provides WabiSabe!!:D
