That is one really bad looking Marbles Safety Folder. Wouldn't even make a parts knife! Huge chunk of the rusted old blade missing, no safety guard, really pathetic.

I have no idea who this seller is but I think I have reasonable explanation for his price! :roll:
He obviously missed a decimal point and really he is trying to sell it for $34.95, IMO much closer to the actual value :lol:
Okay, some people find a good stamp and think they have a gold mine. I was at a gun show this weekend in NW PA and ran into a guy with a whole table full of knives just like this. He had a serious group of ROUGH knives that would have been good had they been in pristine condition but they all had serious wear and repair issues. The cheapest knife on his table was $60 I looked at about 10 knives and asked his price. We were so far apart that I did not even insult him with an offer. Oh well, It takes all kinds right?

I think the decimal point is still off by a couple of places!
34 cents, with free shipping is about right :roll: !
