Just found in my knife collection, an almost new condition RH PAL-70 MAde in the USA knife.
Started searching the internet for info and found this at a knife auction house.

Vintage PAL RH-70(remington) Hunting Knife

Presenting a 1940's to early 1950's vintage PAL RH-70 Hunting Knife . This knife is is excellent shape. Knife is about full. Exhibits minimal sharpening which has been well done. About 85% of the finish is intact with some even patina. Some light scratches on the blade. The tip is all t but is about 2 degrees off from being perfectly straight. Not distracting.
Aluminum guard is tight as are all the stacked leather washers which show some minimal, expected scuffing. Aluminum pommel is nice and secure. This old hunter presents itself quite well. It is built remarkably like the REMINGTON RH71 pattern. I believe PAL used the same die pattern they inherited from REMINGTON. Alas, this knife does not have(and never did) the Deer scene etch like its Remington counterpart.
