Yes I got mine a few weeks ago.
I like to use their RBR scales, and they have updated some of the info on those, some are minor updates, others have made HUGE jumps. 4th Edition I want to say was Copyright 2003, so after 4 years, some knives according to their values have went up quite a bit.
Other than the RBR scales, to me it is pretty much the same book with updated info. They do talk about Schrade going out of business in 2005 as well.
