<p>When Remington moved their knife making to Madison, North Carolina, the Logo they imprinted had a bullet through it. This knife does not have that, so it probably was not made there, but is probably not a much older knife.</p>
<p>The one Remington reference I have does not list an R 16 model, and I can't find anything online that lists it either. Sorry I can't be of more help, but since you have this knife, enjoy it.</p>

<p>There could be two companies that made that knife. The first one is Smokey Mountain Knife Works and almost all of their REMINGTON Knives ware made by Camillus Cutlery Company. The second one is Carolina Knife Works which was owned by Blackie Collins, (Deceased) he also owned Bowen Knife Company and they made a lot of Bullet Knives and other Remington knives.

<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">My first thought when I saw the pictures you posted was that this is a recently manufactured knife. What you ask, would lead me to that conclusion? Well the handle material is stablized wood and that was not in use in the 1930s. What you have appears to be either Pakkawood or Dymondwood. I also thought it might be a Frankenstein, but now believe it's new manufacture.</p>

Thank you guys. The one on worth point is the only one I saw like it at all. There is a park one on eBay for big bucks. All my knife guys are stumped as well. They say to contract Remington, but from what I see, there isn't anyone to contact about old Remington's.
