There was also a mid sized folding hunter in Stag, a little reminiscent of a Case CopperLock but cliser in size to s Copperhead. I have shown a picture of it here before, I believe.

From the photo you posted I take it that you are looking for an easy open jack in stag, not just a Marbles in stag?
If that’s the case, you won’t have much luck finding one. I’d like to have one also. I only have the English Jack in stag.

Oh Gary, you know I love them. I’m not a fixed blade collector but I do like that muskrat you have there.

The pinned one looks like a 7 inch Trailmaker with the sheath
for a 10 inch Trailmaker...
heck of a knife...52/100 steel and built like a tank
I have one but mine has the Stag pommel
Not to many of them floating around
This is my travel trio of fixed blade knives

Not sure if this has been posted before . Good reference to date the Modern Era Marbles Fixed Blades
The one Stagman show on the bottom has a different stamp that isn't in the Marbles Book not sure what's up with that

Just got this Marbles whittler from 2001. Fiery pearl handles. Pristine condition, not a single scratch of blade rub.
