Looking for a copy of Knives that went west

Post by PA Knives »

I wanted to ask my knife friends if anyone has a copy that they might let go. I am in need of it.

PA, I bought mine from Knife World books. Maybe Mark has one for you?

PA, I just checked, and Knife World appears to have two copies in "out-of-print" books! Pricey, but a great book!!

Quite a list, Bill! Who'da thunk you could pay a couple hundred bucks for that book!! I guess KW's prices aren't so bad.

I agree Charlie, Mark and Houston are two of the good folks ::tu:: ::tu:: ...and fair as well. In fact, if you belong to a knife club that has a website link, and is listed with KW, I believe they still kick back 10% of your purchase to the club. At least they used to do that.

I just included that site as a good reference when looking for books. ::nod::
