Since Marbles went bankruptin 2009 this has become one of their hardest to find models. The quality is exceptional. Genuine jigged bone (bovine) handle scales, brass bolster, pins, liners and locking lever. If kept pristine this knife is sure to appreciate in value. It measures 12 inches open and 8.5 inches closed with 4 inches of the blade exposed for smaller tasks. Complete with a very high quality gusseted black heavy leather sheath. It locks very securely in both the open and closed positions and the factory edge is very sharp. New in the box. China made under direct Marbles supervision. $7.75 USPS Priority Mail shipping in the US and $32.40 by Global Priority (Air) to anywhere else in the world where this type knife is permitted for import. NOTE: All USPS shipping charges, Domestic and International, were increased AGAIN in 2010. “Oh no no, it ain’t me babe”. Before leaving less than a 5 star rating on my S&H charges please remember that shipping charges are based on those set by the USPS, not me. I also ship most items by Priority Mail, a premium USPS service, NOT Parcel Post, as it is faster and more secure. My combined shipping discount can dramatically reduce your costs. GENERAL INFORMATION: Most items are shipped within 24 to 48 hours upon receipt of confirmed payment. (M-F) All items are professionally packed in sound boxes with an internal water resistant liner with a packing slip. I ask that a winning bidder notify me within a few days of the auctions close as to expected time and method of payment. I never inflate my shipping and handling costs to increase my profit on an item. I offer substantial combined shipping discounts on multiple wins. I can be contacted 24/7 by email at or by phone Monday –Friday from 8am to 5pm US EST at if you have any questions. If the new ebay policy of payments by Paypal only is a problem for you please contact me. DOMESTIC WINNERS: I use USPS Priority Mail (unless it is a very heavy item). It is a bit pricier than 1 st Class or Parcel Post but gets the item to you within two or three days. I add a $1 to $2 handling fee to each order to help pay for the average 11.5 minutes it takes to process and package a shipment. Do the math… it is less than minimum wage. Shipping charges are fixed rate because most of my listings are one-of-a-kind. They are based on mid-country delivery charges. I win some and loose some on this and basically break even. Every shipment comes with a free Tracking Number and Delivery Confirmation. INTERNATIONAL WINNERS: Para traducir este, por favor corte y pegue este e ir a y utilizar Google Herramientas del idioma. I have shipped to over 40 different countries and it is much more complex than “simple” US sales. Shipping is based on actual cost by Global Priority Mail and I add a $4 handling fee to cover packing and Customs Forms filling time. All shipments include free insurance and a tracking number . PLEASE INCLUDE A PHONE NUMBER with your payment. Customs Offices around the world are overwhelmed with the volume of shipments (largely due to ebay sales) and many are not equipped with the technology (or work ethic) to deal with it. Add to that the increased scrutiny of all packages since 9-11 and you can expect delays. This is very important for winners of edged weapons and bayonets, as I can’t keep track of every countries import regulations. These items WILL NOT be shipped internationally without a phone number. Know your local laws, as I sure don’t. Customs returns because of violations are not my responsibility. If I get an item back I will refund your purchase price but not the shipping costs. MY GUARANTEE: It is the best ebay allows. Cash back with no questions asked for 30 days. None of that “AS IS” crap from Madbear. Happy winners make me happy. It’s not about feedback (see below) but about customer satisfaction. I have been in business for over 40 years and think I almost invented the concept of “keep your clients ... read more
