Are the Marbles knives showing up on various auction sites that have kraton handles and 1095 usa blades assembled from left over blades or are they real Marbles knives? Any one know.

NO. The last of the Marbles factory knives were acquired by Blue Ridge Knives (a largeknife wholesaler) when it bought out the Marbles bankruptcy. They also now own the rights to the Marbles name.
I don't know were the new blades are being made.

The last of the 1095 blades from the factory were used by Bark River to make a custom run of the Ideal Canoe. Jason Thone, owner of DLT Trading Co. commissioned this last run of Marbles blades.

Here are a few examples from my humble collection.
