"Old Knives"

Well, there may be shadow phantom Schrade collectors out there (and this phenomenon does exist in the collecting world), but, if not, Charlie has the best Schrade CutCo collection on the entire planet (and that is a pretty big place, even bigger than Wyoming). We love you, Charlie!

Charlie, if I recall correctly you have spoken of a Mark Nagle that collects schrades, and posted some pictures of his knives in the elusive schrades thread. This was back early in the thread, long before I started doing this. Those were some stunning knives to say the least!

You certainly have the largest accumulation of nice old schrades I have seen on the internet.
 
Paul T, Mark had the best collection of Peachseeds on earth, I am sure!! His knives have gone to a good friend and knife collector!
I miss Mark! He was a good person first, and a knife collector second!!
RIP!!
 
Thank you Charlie, Jeff and all the likers, appreciate it, the bone was a lucky buy.
 
I picked this one up the other day... seller didn't have the best pics of it and the description said "see pictures for description" LoL. So I took a chance on it knowing that it looked like a nice old Remington. I thought based on the old "Remington UMC" circle stamp that it was c.1921-1924 but it turns out it is likely from 1936. I say 1936 specifically because it turns out that this was a one time offer from "Hunter Trader Trapper" magazine as a gift for getting a subscription. This was offered in the October issue of 1936. Mike Robuck has a write-up about these knives in his book and I'm searching for an article that Bernard Levine wrote regarding these in the Knife World magazine as well. I had no idea when I bought the knife that it was particularly rare ;) You will see it is in pretty nice vintage shape... snap is very good and there is no play at all. It's very unique in that it was built on the Remington R3933 frame which was originally for their jumbo sleeveboard whittler, so you will see in the last picture that it actually has two springs for the single blade. The Hunter Trader Trapper catalog called this the Remington "Bulldog" model which I think is aptly named because the sleeveboard frame itself is shaped like a bulldog body; skinny rump and broad shoulders.:D It's 3-5/8" long closed... for scale, I took a pic of it with a Case peanut that I got from one of @r redden 's GAWs :)

Augie that Hickory Whittler is a stunner- what a beautiful Knife, but like R8shell says, sure it would be great finding a mint example- But with NO hesitation I would have picked that knife up in a hurry.

Kevin, Not a Remington you see every day mate!
