Sargent's Books

[stockman]

I have several books by Jim. The large books 2 thru 7. The Knife Nook books 2 and 3. Also a real thin book Knife nook with out any number, Thought it may have been his first book. Did he start his big books with number 2? What am I missing of his books?

I thought for sure you'd get some kind of response on this question. I don't have any of his books so this information would be helpful to me as well.

I have the 2nd and 4th Editions.

Go to www.abebooks.com, put American Premium Guide to Knives and Razors in the title search and Jim Sargent in the author search. Submit it. That will bring up pages of sources that have the book available in any and all editions. Tip - pay attention to the year of publication and the description for the listing. Some sellers use stock pictures for their listings so what is pictured may not be what you think it is. If in doubt you should send a question to the seller via the site.

You can sort through those looking at which edition is offered to see if there is a 1st edition available. This site is a compilation of independent used book sellers worldwide and has probably the largest inventory of used books in the world.

BTW I have bought books from sellers through abebooks.com for years and never had a problem.

Edit: not sure what the date of Sargent's first "big book" would be but I found one with a date of 1985 on the site.
