Seldom seen Marble's knives and sheath

I have noticed that most threads about Marble's knives end
up in other sections...General,,,Knife Related etc. and this
forum ends up with no posts,
that being said, just figured I would post a few pics of some Gladstone made knives
and a sheath Marble's made that if real and in this kinda condition, would be worth $5000.00 bucks !!!
Top pick down.....
1) Marble's Safety Folding knife
2( A Stag Trailmaker with special etch in Original issue display case
3) The "COQUINA" sheath made 1902-06, This one made of horse hide
by Jack Mosher, original one held 2 knives and a sharpening steel, all Stag handled
Jack only made 5-6 of these
4) A Prototype of the "Haines" knife that was made 1910-15, its the only one I know of
and they never put it back in production...just a few here of not seen very often Marble's pieces

Although my Marbles photos have been shown elsewhere as stagman pointed out, I wanted to take this opportunity to be sure I had them under the Marbles thread.

The 3rd of my photos from the top is incorrectly labeled Willow Leaf. Hear is the Willow Leaf with a Gutta Percha handle.

Thank you doglegg. Nothing subtle about it, but if a man wanted to conquer a wilderness it would come in mighty handy.

Looking through my modest collection to see what I have pictures of . . .

Throwing in a group shot and screwdriver set just for the heck of it, will take some more organized pictures later. I have my fixed blades organized my date, the oldest (M.S.A.) are on the left to newer on the right. Most of my fixed blades are resting on a tin boxed Marble's gun cleaning kit complete with all the pieces for cleaning both rifles and handguns.

The history setting on that tin in the 1st photo is mind boggle-ling Red
that is a very well versed collection of Webster Marble goodies !!!
Outstanding,, I am really enjoying seeing some Marble's knives and
Outing Equipment being posted....they really were the outfit all others
in the outdoor supply business were chasing from 1900-1930
PS
That Deweese with the stamp on the off side is one you see very little of Red

Thanks Will. ::handshake:: Incidentally, that Woodcraft second from the right is a Buster Brown Shoes knife and sheath, wish it was in better condition. At the knife museum in Smokey Mountain Knife Works they had a pristine one with sheath, not sure about if or where there is a knife museum now? ::shrug:: They had an awesome Marble's display including a Game Getter firearm, which is a Grail item for me.

I'll take some better, individual pictures of my Marble's acquisitions and post them when I get back to Virginia to get this forum off and running. I too am happy it was added. ::nod::
