Here's the one I like the most. Great Stag. Beautiful patina. I believe it is pre-world war I, 1913-1935 possibly. Has three pins instead of five. I had to hide this one from the wife.

It looks cleaned in the pictures, but it's not. It's got patina on the blade and guard, but it didn't show up.

Jim I can see why it is your favorite. It is the perfect knife!

I don't know what the allure is to these Safety Folders, but I am really drawn to them. They are substantially bigger than a pocket knife and require a sheath to carry them, but they are just a solid, well designed knife with nice design to them that is different.

They're all beauties, Jim....but the stag one....Wow!...Wow!

Congrats!

Did you have to hide it from the wife because she'd take it? You know mine would!

You mean In days of old, When knights were bold and people knew how to make knives...with class.

Man, that is a fine lookin knife!

Jim,

I believe the pre-WWl versions had a thong hole in the extension guard. The post-WWl models began using a nail nick.

Hang on, I'm gonna try and find it..........


OK,
Page 351 in Levine's #4.
It also looks like the pre-WWl knives were stamped M.S.A.C.O., rather than MARBLE'S, like the post-WWl knives.

That is a fine, fine specimen.

Thanks Bill, I wasn't really certain when it was made. I'm going to have to find the book that you are using for info.
