David Darom, Art and Design in Modern Custom Fixed blade Knives - 2007 Chartwell

This book has some amazing blades, many too pretty and artistic for me but some real beauties and far-out techniques in amongst them. Damascus, forge-welding and more, from traditional to modern gold/beryllium alloy blades and with incredible carved handles, casting, titanium in amazing colours - lots of interest, you will find at least a couple you want I am sure! It is $120 to buy (!!!! I got it from the Library) but it can be found NEW in Aus for $40 inc. shipping now it is a year old.

Guess you are not a vegetarian unless you live on brew and just read the others.
No complaints....it's gotta be red...for mine.

Wow, Nimrod, if all libraries had just some of those books in them, the world would be a better place. Aslo, what's your favourite knife-making and your favourite hunting book? So i know what to get.

Also, i like the look of the backyard ballistics book

, I'm sure that would give many hours of fun.

P.S. This thread title rhymes.

Crikey Nimrod, when do you get time to shoot, mate?

That is the most impressive book collection I have ever seen, and my word you look after them well, too! Your well and truly prepared for when it all collapses, I must say!
