I have the third and fourth edition of the "Standard Knife Collectors Guide" for sale. I am willing to trade if you have something of interest. Otherwise make me a reasonable offer. You will find I am easy to work with. They are both is good condition and still valuable reference guides. The price should be good for you newbies as well.
send me a PM or email and I will get back ASAP
I was hoping someone would be in need of a good starter book on the subject.
