Marble folding hunter - Letters to the Editor - Letter to the Editor

Shooting Industry, Nov, 2003 by Bill Harvey

If you think Buck was the first "folding hunter" (Outdoor Marketplace, July 2003), you might like to read about Marble's folding hunter made in 1902. It also had a safety 1 o.ck. You can see what it looks like on our Website, www.gungrip.com.

This is an exact replica of the M.S.A. Safety Hunter Folder Knife. This is the No. 2 model marked "M.S.A. Co. 02" on the 5-inch blade with blood grooves. The U-shaped bolsters and guard are German silver. Black scales are marked "Marbles Safety Axe Co.--Gladstone Michigan, USA."
