I'd like to say who did me this solid but I won't because it might be best I don't put him on the spot.

I am quite thrilled with an exchange that certainly was great for me.

Ooooooooo and how awesome are these marbles. and I am a big Jabo fan, especially the fancy ones.

There were also a couple amazing gifts. I mean amazing! I'll post them another time.

I am blown away. You know who you are and thank you so much.

:confetti:

Ahhh Nice contents from the bag Tommy. Even better than I thought but that's not all of them is it?

No took all the game marbles out and the beat up ones as well 👍🏼

@schmoozer those are really cool ive never seen one before. The glass makes sense though , back in the day carbon steel was the norm , it doesnt stand up to acid well. The option was silver that was expensive .

This is just my speculation I collected silver pocket fruit knives from Victorian times.

I’ve got maybe 6 silver fruit knives, some with pearl handles, other have silver handles. I think one is Gorham. 
 

I collect knives as well.

I recently saw that and numerous other lots of pocket knives on hibid. I was after the marbles. Sure was a bunch of knives. Nice catch!

These have been in my collection for years, starting to sell locally.
