Marbles Salesman Sample

Webster Marble formed Gladstone Mfg. Co. in 1892. That company created the first folding Axe in 1893 which lead to the incorporation of Marble's Safety Axe Co. in 1898. The company became Marble Arms & Mfg. Co. in 1911 & enjoyed years of success until succumbing to a shut down of production in 1974. The brand was brought back to life in 1994 & enjoyed a grand rejuvenation that later gave way to another shutdown in 2009. Many great knives & tools were crafted over the company's storied history.

Marbles Salesman Sample

Post by knifegnome »

I have had this Marbles stag Ideal knife about 10 years, All the salesman samples I have ever seen on any knife had the models numbers inked on the blade. Has anyone ever seen it scratched into the blade? Marked on the backside #46 - 5" with SIX spelled out below.
Pictured with my 22 Smith & Wesson model 17 .

Maybe the salesman did it himself?
