Miscellaneous Knife Related Items jrg@woh.rr.com

A NEW BOOK: The initial twenty some years for the Marble’s Company were highly interesting with the introduction of new knife designs and the refinement of existing products. This book tries to capture that excitement by showing examples of the products. These were the years when Webster L. Marble was actively involved in the design, manufacturing and management of the products and the company. Marble’s made hundreds of products but our only interest here is with their knives, primarily their most popular models, the Ideal, the Woodcraft and the Folding Hunters and only during the period of me up to World War I. Almost every knife shown in this book was made over 100 years ago. This is a picture book, a photo album of the most exciting and creative period of the famous Marble’s outing equipment company. Very limited printing. Format is 8.5 by 11 inches, 100 plus pages, all color. Price is $45 delivered.

FAKE F/S--The following information is being presented in the hope that other collectors will not get burnt:
Fake 2nd Pattern F/S--Made to be a Free French Variation--The 6 7/8" blade is blackened, under the black is what appears to be a copper plating or coating. The guard has a small Broad Arrow on the top side. The blackened knurled grip has a large Cross imbedded in the knurling. The Cross is aprox 1/2" tall and 3/8" wide. After talking with a couple friends, John Fischer and Tom Parker and re-reading a section of Ron Flook's book, I have come to the conclusion that this thing is bogus.
This additional information came from fellow collector Kerry Gordon. (thanks Kerry)
I just thought that you might like to know that you weren't the only one ever caught with one of these - not only do I have the French version but I also have one with the Belgian Rampant Lion stamped into the hilt.

The real give away with these is that the blade tang doesn't run all the way through the pommel nut, there's about two threads empty at the end of the nut. The other thing is that the brass pommel nuts are painted with gloss black paint rather than blackened.

Someone spent a lot of time and effort on these, the blades are tinned under the blackening and the hilts are blackened brass that is reasonable well checkered.
