Marbles Folding Guard Folding Knife

Having recently bought the Marbles Folding Bowie, I simply had to buy a 'sort of' baby brother - though this one is a 'long pocket knife. First of all, 5/5 to HH for immediate dispatch and next-day delivery. 5/5 for value-for-money - exceptional. 5/5 for good looks; 5/5 for folding smoothness and cross guard deployment; 5/5 for firm backlock; 4.5/5 for sharpness (needing only a strop). I note previous comments, it is very slim, but perfectly useable, knife. I'd agree that it' has the feel of a collector's item, and comes in a nice display box. I won't use it, but feel that I could if I ever needed to. Another EXCELLENT purchase, at an unbelievable price-relative-to-quality.

What a great knife for the money. Lovely. If youre a fan of swinguards-get one!! First rate service from HH. 5 stars.

I must admt I got ths knie because I saw the Case Cheetah more than 10 years ago but never managed to find one. So I was buying more for the novelty of the design than anything. And I was actually well surprised by the quality for that price point. It even came sharp! The picture doesn't convey its actual size. This is not a heavy duty knife, it is a gentleman folder, for light cutting tasks, opening letters, that sort of stuff. The folding guard is therefore not there to turn this knife into a stiletto, it is there as a safety feature to prevent the hands slipping. The knife is actualy quite thin. It has a nice Wild West or Steampunk flavour. My only minor criticism is it arrived quite dirty (factory dust/residue). As usual, nice box and storage pouch from Marble's.

This is a classic swingguard knife like the Case Cheetah or the Puma Medici, except for a fraction of the price. A true value knife, Don't hesitate if you wan't one, they are quickly sold out !

fantastic little folding guard knife, looks like a jem feels nice in the hand, more of a display piece than a edc but that said iv used it quite a bit and its always been up to the job.

I think I was one of the first to buy it from H H several years ago looking forward to owning one as Queens Cutlery was priced out of my range .Sadly the knife is disappointing very slim more of a display item Still a good looker but not a worher hard to get a good grip of. IT was 5star service as always.

Great service again from HH. This knife feels and looks great. Sharp o.t.b. with a sensible sized handle. Agree with the previous reviewer that the back spring feels a bit slack (hence only 4)but appears to lock open securely.

Great knife for the money, excellent fit and finish, could do with a stronger spring on the blade to give it that reasuring snap,hense only 4 stars. Really pleased with it still tho.
