I have a Remington R16 that is in WAY too good of shape to be what the tang stamp dates it at. The stamp dates to 1933-35. I have heard tales that they might have remade these in the 80's, but cannot…Continue

Robert, In my "Official Price Guide to Collector Knives" 15th Edition, the R1253 Remington Bullet "Banana" Hunter with bone, the mint price is $2,300.
Someone posted, that they had sold one, 3 years ago, for $1650. Now I can't find that post anywhere. I didn't get a chance to respond. What happened?
Thanks Miss Jan, I really adore the knife. I don't think I could have been able to buy one, if I hadn't made a great deal. The Muskrat Man, really did a wonderful job. Oh, he's one of our members.
Robert,
That rehandle is sweet and I agree. That knife was way! to nice to not retore
Thanks for your trouble Gus. The tang stamp is R1253, the #3 is a little fuzzy and could be the #8. I had someone look it up and have it written down in one of my knife books but I can't put my hand on the book right now. The handle is jigged bone. I think it's the 5 1/4" Guide knife.
On the tang of your Remington knife, it should say something like R1273, if its not there, you are in deep trouble.
I spent a lot of time in my Remington Guide book today, looking for your knife, it would really help if I had the pattern number. Is this a Bullet Banana 5 1/4 inches and are the handles bone or genuine stag.
