Where do the different bones come from and how is Remington different from Napanoch? Sorry for the bunch of questions, and thank you in advance for your response.

MRobuck Knife Enthusiast Registered: 04/02/07 Posts: 151	Paraphrased from Levine's Guide: Napanoch started making extemely high quality knives in 1900 and was bought out by Winchester in 1919. Some Napanoch employees started Honk Falls Knife Company, which lasted until 1929. A guy bought the Napanoch name from Winchester and made knives at the old location until 1939. There are various Remington stamps, but Remington Arms Company/U.M.C made knives from 1919 to 1940. The first bullet knives were made in 1922. To me the Napanoch bone looks like it has a wider or bigger jigging pattern in the bone. I would love to have a Bose knife in either. Edited by John_Nugent (10/07/08 06:54 PM)

JM1 Knife Enthusiast Registered: 02/20/08 Posts: 272	Ok, let me see if I get it. I'd guess the bone is all basically the same; that is, from a cow's leg or something. Right? Regarding the Remington and Napanoch, these are pieces of bone "prepared" (cut, dried, tinted, carved...) by each manufacturer? Thus, when a knifemaker uses a particular type of bone is because he got some of the bone remaining from either Remington or Napanoch in this case?
