Marbles (MR278) "GI" Knife
Blades are highly polished and the SS scales are well stamped and pinned. The punch blade is a little shorter than the one on a real knife. The blase etch is really clean. I'll have to use it a bit to see how well it last over time. But straight out of the box it measures up to the real deal. At $7 it is a steal!

I'm pretty sure the Marbles and the Schrade are made in the same Chinese factory. The Colonial, I can't say for sure. I know ther Colonial rigging knife is not built in the same manner as the Schrade or Rough Rider. It isn't as well polished and the finish isn't as nice but it is built like a tank and will probably take more punishment than the other two combined. There is debate on if that knife is USA or Chinese in Origin. (Knife is unmarked, box says USA)

I'll have to be looking for that Colonial. Need to find out where it is made, Looks like it is priced at $25 which could prove very reasonable, especially if it is a USA build. The Ontario one is $40!
