Buck/Remington partnership

I think this is big news for both Remington and Buck knife folks. But, we need to see how it works out. Hopefully, it will be like the old Buck/Camillus contract production. Remington will contract with Buck to make knives, hopefully some folders, and we will at least get some Buck marked knives per Remington design. Maybe see a stockman with a shotgun choke tube wench for a blade. Or maybe a big stockman or trapper for you guys that favor and dream of such a model. Will watch for details. You guys on the Buck facebook page keep us that don't do FB informed on what you hear.
Here we go I will start the wild speculation, hope to see a classic looking big trapper or stockman. Buck will make the Remington model with green sawcut scales and tangs stamped with Remington ID and shield that says Remington . Then the Buck clone will be offered in black sawcut scales, tangs stamped like regular Buck 300s with the old knife bolt and hammer shield. Vote against Lamiepoxy wood scales and blue shield. I would guess fancy metal is not in the cards.

Glad your thinking along these lines. Buck could manufacture some of Remington's good patterns. DM
 
Both companies should make out on this deal and hopefully we will too. I would like to see both old and new designs. I'm still hoping for a caplifter knife; a blade and bottle opener / screwdriver. Useful items indeed! This could be the opportunity. Unlikely, but hey that's what I want.
 
This opens a whole new area of collecting Buck made knives.

We will be on the ground floor,so to speak,of an new era of collecting our favorite American made manufacturer.Hoorah!
 
I'm in a wait and see mode for now. Part of me is excited if we see some different classic patterns. However, I'm a bit worried if things are Chinese made or the Bear and Son stuff. Need more info before I know which way to go.
 
I heard that Buck is going to be making Knives for
Remington... I don't think Bucks name will be on
the knives... :grumpy: :eek: ... I hope I'm wrong...

:)
 
Maybe they will make some custom Remington legacy type knives (have a look at the photo CJ gave a custom 119 to the Rem Group). They did that on the down low for Gerber or maybe it was Browning can't remember for a few years. We will just have to wait and see.
