Bob Engnath Question

[shappa]

I know that Bob did some fantastic scrimshaw.
Did he ever put out a book on the subject?
If so, does anyone know the name?

Thanks

P.S. If anyone has any of his blanks available I'm looking.

Tom, I used to have one of Bob's cataloges but it got lost in the fire. Try getting in contact with Gene Martin. He was trained by Bob so maybe he can give you the information your looking for. http://www.customknife.com/AboutScrimshaw.htm

He is missed.
I just got both his books. The best price I could find on these out of print books was a tad high, and it was through Amazon.
I've got his catalog, and no, I'm keeping it...
Most of his catalog is on this site...Engnath

Howie,
may I ask what they cost?

Thanks

If I remember correctly, the first one was $45, and the second $75. + some shipping...
I like the second book better.
Blanks? What blanks?

 

[shappa]

There's the first book on ebay...currently 36.00.
Go for it guys.

Yep, most guys that have his blanks are hoarding them.
