Here's Marlowe's site.

Hey, poboy--which Marlowe did you order? I'll (hopefully) be ordering from him sometime soon as well--let me know how yours turns out.
 
I'll have to give Marlow a try next, I tried several times last October/November to place an order with Mr. Obenauf, had talked to him on the phone a couple times, and sent several emails, and he always promises to check on somthing or other and get back with me, but to date has never followed through. I finally gave up on him. I just bought one of his knives used, it isn't the same style or handle material I was wanting, but should be here this week. Guess I'll soon see what I've been missing. Shame I wasn't able to convince him to make one for me. :(
 
Hey JD and Zenghost I have a Marlowe coming in the next couple of weeks. I ordered the speearpoint he introduced back in January. It has a 4" blade of BG42 and is 3/16" thick with some deep hollow grinds. Went with all micarta handle slabs in black linen and .083" thick titanium liners. Of course it will have a solid stainless steel backspacer. I'm really looking forward to this knife as I've never held or seen a Marlowe in person but everyone I've read about has nothing but good things to say.

Here's a pic of the prototype..............
 
Art--this is my Marlowe:

...and if the fit and finish of my bali is any indication of the fit and finish of his folders, then I think you're really going to enjoy the knife. Also, Charles puts quite an edge on his blade.

SWEET bali Zen! Like I said, EVERYTHING I've heard from others concerning Charles's knives is positive!! I'm fully expecting to have my socks knocked off when it arrives!!:eek: :D :cool: :)
