Customer Reviews

A very good book of CATALOGS
The title is misleading. There is not a guide to grading knives in the book. However, I love looking at the old catalogs. I have been collecting knives for a while and this is the only resource I know that has so many pictures of the old knives. I would give it 5 Stars, but the title is problematic, so I give it 4 Stars.

Would've Rather Had The Other One
This book didn't have but a few peices that I was looking for..The illustration was poor which is not Amazon's problem..Wish I could return for a refund;but know that's not possible..Thank you for you're quick shipping of the item..And I will continue to do business w/you..Gordon Stanley
