Marbles Benchmade.

I recently bought a Marbles Benchmade. 1/2 Canoe Lockback. Does anybody know anything about these? All I have found out is they were made in Seki, Japan under distributorship of Parker Distributing. It says handmade by Tak Fukuta on the box. It has an eagle etch on the blade like a lot of parker knives do. I didn't spend a lot on it,but I like to have a variety of different brands.

Don what matters is that brand name Makers like Moki use the Factory in Seki,Japan due to the workmanship an Quailty of the knives that come from there is what matters! But I dont think thier are hunderds
of factorys maybe workers!
