All About Pocket Knives

I have recently come into a handful knives and I would love to get some quality info on them. One happens to be this Marbles. I have had my hands on a couple fabulous machetes made by Marbles but the newer knives I am clueless to. I've searched for a match to this knife on eBay for a value and cannot find one similar. If my dating pattern is correct I am guessing this is 1998. Any other information that can shed light is grwatly appreciated.

It appears to me that your 1998 date is spot on. As far as value is concerned . In my opinion, value is subjective and personal.

I followed the newer Marbles fixed blades on ebay for a few years. Prices vary widely but not often much over $100. The ones from Mike Stewart years should be excellent users similar to today's Bark River knives. I don't think there is much collector interest at this point, but there might be in 50 years.
