MSA elephants toenail original old knife

Webster Marble formed Gladstone Mfg. Co. in 1892. That company created the first folding Axe in 1893 which lead to the incorporation of Marble's Safety Axe Co. in 1898. The company became Marble Arms & Mfg. Co. in 1911 & enjoyed years of success until succumbing to a shut down of production in 1974. The brand was brought back to life in 1994 & enjoyed a grand rejuvenation that later gave way to another shutdown in 2009. Many great knives & tools were crafted over the company's storied history.

Thank you!!! That is a white elephant type knife, don't try any repairs or cleaning. 😉👍
Pocket, fixed, machete, axe, it's all good!

I'm interested in selling the knife.

Anyone know where I can take it? I'm in the Dallas, Tx area.

Also, any idea what the value is?

Selling items here requires purchasing a premium subscription, which means an investment on your part of at least $20 per year. That allows you to post items for sale here in the Knife Commerce forum. https://www.allaboutpocketknives.com/kn ... m.php?f=49

For details click on the box on the upper right of this page where it says Support AAPK. ::tu::
