MABLES REPLICA SAFETY KNIFE!

[Madmarco]

Hey guys! I just received an email from Jemmy Iwahara from Japanese Knife Direct, the same fella that Mark(SSk)deals with in Japan, and he has a replica of the Marbles Safety Knife that was hand-made by Master Fumio Inagaki and has a 5" Cos-25 Cobalt blade, 4 1/2" stag covers, nickel silver bolsters and hilt, and is a collectors item since only 1 was built. The price is US$450., but Jemmy said for myself or any other AAPK member he will reduce the price to US$390. You can go directly to www.japaneseknifedirect.com and send Jemmy a message that you're interested in this knife, or, you can contact myself via PM or email and I will get the 2 of you together. He sent a picture of the knife in his email, but unfortunately I don't know how to attach the picture to this thread, but I can tell you it's probably the nicest safety knife I've ever seen, and has very gnarly stag covers. The new owner of this one certainly won't be disappointed! Thanks, Mark!

I'd like to see it too, didn't see it from your web link, Mark.

I'm not familiar with the Marbles Safety knife but have to say that Master Fumio Inagaki is an impressive craftsman. Lots of beautiful knives on that site.

I'm sorry guys, I'm really computer illiterate, but I'll give it a try!

Wow, it worked! Ya learn somethin' new everyday here at AAPK! Thanks for the help S-man! This is the only pic that was supplied to me!

Yes, I'm sorry bout that John. I went back to look myself, but didn't see it either. Perhaps because Jemmy made the offer to us here he isn't posting it on the site until he knows if anyone here wants it.

I agree whole-heart-idly with you Markie, it tis the nicest safety folder I've seen so far, and I've seen a few in my day.
And the price he's asking, for a safety folder no less, is haaaaaard to pass on.
But, tisn't my cup of tea.
Even a "genuine" Marbles isn't my ting, shoot's for different roots, like any collecting .


Thank you for sharing Marko, I can absolutely appreciate top craftsmenship, when I see it.

As far as I know it's still available Doormann. If you're interested I can give you Jemmy's contact info and you can deal directly with him. Please let me know ASAP, because I was just about to email Jemmy to go ahead and sell it because the response from the guys here has been mild.

I'll tell ya John, that Willy is a real ! LOL! When people start calling you by a name that was made-up it has a tendency to stick, and I REALLY don't want to get stuck with that handle!
