This is a 1989 Remington Bullet knife R1128 Jumbo Trapper. In 1989 the handles were genuine cocobolo wood. The pattern is the most popular of all of the Bullet knives, the Jumbo Trapper. 4-½ inch closed with a 3-5/8 inch Clip Point blade and a 3-5/8 inch Spey blade. This knife is from the second run of knives made by riveting the wood slabs to the brass liners. There was a big problem with wood splitting and cracking, so production was stopped to fix the problem. The fix was to glue the wood slabs to the brass linings. Fake rivets were added at an angle to reduce cracking. The single bolster is nickel silver as is the bullet shield. This knife was made by Camillus and sold by Remington; this is the ninth model of the new issue Bullets.
This is the 1988 Remington R1615 Bullet knife with one blade, a long clip that is 4 inches long. This knife is toothpick in shape, nickel silver bolsters, and lined.

Remington did not sell this knife to the general public, Camillus made it for Smokey Mountain Knife Works in Sevierville, TN. It is a close copy of the original Remington “Round Bullet” knife R1615. The colorful handle is quite close in color to the original and the shape and other dimensions are identical. In its original form this is a rare knife.
