The connection is with a fellow named doglegg that put the picture of one and the description of the other! Thank you sir for pointing out my mistake.

"Heavy Duty"? I think United (a manufacturing consortium of Blue Ridge and SMKW) had these made by Camillus, along with some of the Harley Davidson knives.

Thanks, Cody, for the info.

I just received these two in the mail tonight...The Marble’s, I believe, is pre WW1 (I’m no expert so I could be wrong).. The Case peanut (NIB) I got for $30 shipping included on eBay… Sometimes you find a deal!!

Good looking knives Ryan.

I especially like the handle on the Marbles Ryan. Good pick ups.

Thanks guys!

An old Marbles is always a win. Nice one Stan!

Nice finds Ryan! Especially that peanut!!!

Thanks Stooge & Tom!

Got few in today two from Roland, kj a Tony Bose Collaboration Trapper from the first year Case and TB worked together. Notice the run up on the blades/backspring, tight as can be. The bone color and jigging on this are superior to any other knife I have ever seen or own.
Second one is a Scout Trapper from GEC, 2007 Chocolate bone, just a beautiful knife.
3rd is GEC 62 pocket carver in smooth white bone.
Last is a Canal Street Two Blade Swell Center Jack from 2013, only 50 of these were made for the Wolverine Knife Collectors Club. Absolutely fabulous stag on this one. Mirror polish all around, blades, backsprings and even spacers are mirror polished. They really took their time making this one.

Some fine ones, there, Mark!

Beautiful knives Mark! All of them!

Yes Sir, not a loser in the bunch. The TB and the 62 trip my trigger.

Beautiful knives Mark!!..Here’s three I got in the mail today: an E.C. Simmons Keen Kutter , a Case 6 dot and a Camillus electrician’s knife..

Ryan, that's a very nice trio of cutlery.

Great day for pick ups, you did good Ryan.

Thanks guys ! I also got all three (separately) for a very very reasonable price..

Thank you guys, this was a very good day.

I'm with Floyd...the Case/TB Slim Trapper is schweeeet! Roland is good people, I'm sure he gave you a better-than-fair deal.

And, I really like that #62 Pocket Carver, too. As a card carrying member of the "Wharncliffe Fan Club" I firmly believe you can't have too many Wharncliffe blades. Apparently GEC decided to put this maxim to the test...on a single knife! I wish I were showing my Pocket Carver here right now...but, alas, they sold out loooong before I even got the memo that they were available.

Well done, Mark; nice scores all around.
