Marbles knives.... I like Puma but my pal at work collects Marbles. Whenever I see one in a pawn shop I call him then text some pictures. Usually end up buying it for him if the price is right. If I remember I’ll show him tomorrow.
EDIT
Texted him the pics of the knife. Here’s the response
It's nice. The markings look different than some of mine, but Gladstone is the goods.

Thank you sir [emoji1303]. I much appreciate it[emoji847]
I plan to polish them light scuff marks out. Im slowly turning it into a convex grind. I can clean it up with the strop. Convex is my absolute favorite knife edge. I do it to axes too.

This guy has a jig he clamps knives in the puts a three angle edge on knives. He did my hunting Puma a few years ago. Done probably 6 deer with it since and it’s still RAZOR sharp. Picture of the puma from the 60’s, Rifle from the 50’s and a poor little buck that made the mistake of being the only deer to walk in front of me in two days.... of hard hunting up at camp. Love my PUMA

I joined "allaboutpocketknives" to find out about a pre war "Scout" knife I had. They have a monthly members give a way. So, thinking I had a drawer full of knives, some very nice, I decided to donate one. My wife paid over $100 for it 30+ years ago. I never used it, so away it went. The guy that won it in the drawing lived in Moscow, and I don't mean Moscow PA. I asked if it was legal to ship it to Russia. He said in the description just put Fishing Scissors. When he got it he said he was glad they didn't open it, he had no idea from the pic that it was over a foot long. I looked up the maker to see if I could find out what it was worth before I donated it. They make tactical knives now. Then I donated my Hop Along Cassidy folding knife as a door prize at our Savage collectors rendezvous.
Maybe we could do a monthly give away? Donor ships. On AAPK you pick a 3 digit number and the closest with out going over wins. They use a local lottery the last day of the month to pick the winner. We might have to use the 4 digit lottery. The have a pretty big membership and never come close to using all 999 numbers.
Thot of that but the Chinese ones that I've seen never have logos and usually not stamped .

First time. Now this is actually a hatchet head that I hung on a 28” boys axe handle. So the fit was tight. Had to do a good amount of whittling of the wood to get the head down this far. Got it down to what I thought was a reasonable place and got really good contact on the handle.
Cut the groove down a bit further so it is about 2/3 of the way down the hatchet head as stated in that video[emoji16].
Tell me what you think. I’m here to learn and I have thick skin[emoji16][emoji1303][emoji41]

Looks awesome to me
I picked up a boy's axe yesterday. It has a 26" handle, single bit. On the head it says "Hartwell Bros., Grey Gorge, Memphis. Tenn. Anyone heard of this brand?
First yardsale of the year 
It was a church basement fundraiser .
Didn't find any axes but I did buy this for 2$
16" pick , 26" handle with a 2 piece system .
