Reader Reviews
This review is from: Official Price Guide to Collector Knives, 11th Edition (Official Price Guide to Collector Knives, 11th ed.) (Paperback)
Though I was a little disappointed by the photo quality the text is very well done and I was able to use this book several times during research projects when quite frankly, no other book had the info I was looking for. The book is easy to use, quite informative and well worth the price you can get it for through Amazon. I think there is a place for this book in any knife collectors library.
