Welcome Home...THANK YOU FOR BEING A PART OF OUR COMMUNITY

My dad gave me this back in the '70s. It had a broken tip and wasnt worth much then. I re ground the tip and sharpened it a bit and have had it ever since. Its a pre 1942 Marbles Ideal Hunting Knife.

Michael, just picked up this tidbit today from a guy who has sold 100's of Marbles--If the" A" serif in the Marbles tang stamp faces right, it is circa 1940- early 50's-- However, if the " A" serif such as your knife faces left it dates to circa  1911- 1930-- Therefore, your Marbles Ideal was made between 1911-1930 !!- Borrowed one of your other pics to show this-- LOL

A fuller Fuller you'd be hard-pressed to find!

What a great old knife, Michael!
