Pristine, brand new in the box Marbles 100th Anniversary Folding Swing-Guard Bowie (Model MR312). Complete with the original factory collector box, heavy-duty black nylon belt sheath, original plastic wrap, and the rare original catalog page. Never carried, used, or sharpened.

The Famous Factory Error:
• This special commemorative release features a famous factory misspelling in the blade embellishment, where "GETTER" is etched as "GETER". 

The Ultimate Collector Bonus:
• Includes the original vintage Smoky Mountain Knife Works (SMKW) mail-order catalog page saved by my father-in-law. The page features the original $29.99 price and explicitly prints a red arrow pointing out "THE ERROR," explaining to collectors how manufacturing variations make unique collectibles. 

Official Factory Specifications (From Catalog Page):

• Country of Manufacture: China (Stamped clearly on the back blade tang and box end cap)
• Blade Material: 440A Stainless Steel
• Blade Feature: Intricate blade embellishment / etching (Note: Part of the blade remains exposed when the knife is closed)
