I have brand new copies of 2 classic knifemaking books - “How To Make Folding Knives" by Ron Lake, Frank Centofante, and Wayne Clay (still in the original plastic wrap) and "How To Make Multi-blade Folding Knives" by Eugene Shadley & Terry Davis (with foreword by Tony Bose). These are definitive books on making folding knives written by acknowledged masters, to say nothing of being very collectable and much more expensive on eBay and Amazon.
$100 each including USPS Priority Mail shipping CONUS - PayPal only please. You can take both for $180.
“How To Make Folding Knives” is in three sections, each maker showing the author's own, unique, approach to making a great folder, with an additional section on working with pearl/delicate materials by Mr. Centofante. Ron Lake's description of his design process is a revelation in itself.
"How To Make Multi-blade Folding Knives" is written in two sections -- Eugene Shadley and Terry Davis each give their own quite detailed step by step walkthru of their processes and techniques as they each make a complex multiblade -- Shadley makes a 5 blade sowbelly stockman, and Davis makes a three blade wharncliffe splitspring whittler.
First communication here indicating "I'll take it" gets priority. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask. I've never sold anything here so bear with me as I learn the process.
