Hey all, I was Christmas shopping in LeBaron today and in additon to picking up a few fishing reels I picked up a copy of Tom Ables The Story of Buck Knives for $10 CAD. It had no jacked, a ding in the cover and the book section is no longer attached to the cover but I don't care, the content alone is worth plenty. This was the first time I've seen it there so based on its age i'm assuming it must have been uncovered while digging through the stock room. I usually just buy knife books to flip through, look at the pictures and read the captons but this will be a cover to cover read for sure. Take care all.

Congrats on your find, Lindey!

If you find another copy, please let me know. :D
 
That was a good find. I googled up a signed 1sted for $65US and found another in NH for $35 and another one in New Zealand. So they are out there but somewhat more pricey.

So Chris, Why not do a book review for us when you've finished??
 
Of,course, I'm an old school teacher, but I think it's time to assign the proverbial "Book Report".

Hi Chris,

That book is full of Buck history and a quick read...your going to love it.

The rest of you fellows just got an assignment also...find a copy of that book and read it!!! I got my copy from ebay; they pop up there often. I just looked on amazon and there is a few used copies there for sale...one is cheap. We want a weekly update on your progress...Gordon, Jack & BigJohn;)
