• Happy Thanksgiving to all of you! I hope that you all have something to be grateful for this year and for many years to come
  • America has reached 250 years, and I am grateful to be here, in the best country in the world. Thank every one of you who helps make this country a better place, those who have gone before and risked it all, and those who've paid the ultimate price to make the United States what we are today.

    Happy Birthday America! Let Freedom Ring for all time!

Now we have 3 beautifully illustrated, top-class books on
Art of folders, fixed knifes AND now, the latest book - on advanced knifemaking process.

The last one, available from knife art, "Modern Custom Knifemaking",
http://www.knifeart.com/thearbydar.html , goes much more in depth,
in documenting, in series of photos, a number of knifemaking Masters
going through the process of making their knives. 2-4 pages, dozens
of photos per project - plenty to answer most of the questions I had (the "How the hell do they do that ?" type)

Highly recommended !
 
As I read the book:

- there're good 30 pages on bulino, engraving and other decorative techniques

- quite an in-depth section, from prolly 5 different masters, on all kinds of Damascus, including mosaic

All richly illustrated with top-notch photographs
 
Just got my copy. Really great reading. Nice to see Bill Vining and Chuck Gegraitis in there. Can't wait for his fourth book.
