FWIW---and not to steal this thread but....
I have a variety of "Marbles" blades/blade blanks that were in their supplier system to be ground (CNC/Berger grinders) when Marbles decided to crap on their U.S. suppliers. The knives they sold with convex grinds were probably ground at Marbles by hand, the flat ground blades were outsourced to be ground--at least back when US made.
The blades are sterile, and I would have to check exactly what I have, but there are drop points, clip points, the small capers like 2mg showed above, and some other odds and ends.
I believe that all the blades were out of 52100 at that time.
I am considering putting a build program together in a couple months to use up the blades and blanks. (I have processed all my raw steel into my blade patterns at this time, so....)
Nice pics and cool stuff shown above.

Im privy to Tims stash and its good stuff, all 52-100 stuff. Count me in on a group deal with one of the Trailcraft blades...
