4.0 out of 5 stars Basic, covering large maufacturers only.
Reviewed in the United States on April 19, 2017
Verified Purchase
This has most of the more commercially available knife manufacturers and lists a few of their knives. This is by no means a comprehensive list of makers and their work. Each maker has a write up by the author, giving the reader the background on the manufacturers and then listing the authors personal favorites. If you are looking for a really in depth book on knives, this is not it. It skims the surface of the bigger names in knife manufacturing (Case, Spyderco, Bear & Son, Hogue, etc). It has pictures with its selection of knives from the makers. There are no custom knife makers in the book.

In the front of the book, there are a few articles presented on various topics.

Overall, it's a nice, basic knife book.

Reviewed in the United States on July 23, 2017

My husband is a big knife collector and has been buying the Gun version of this "Shooters Bible" book for many years. He was quite delighted with this knife version of information. Basically in the same format as the gun version. It is an awesome reference book for knives of all types. Shipped promptly, packaged nicely and arrived in perfect condition.
