Great book on the ins and outs of knifemaking!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Solid Book
*by R***S on February 3, 2023*

I just got into knifemaking in the Fall of 22. This was one of a handful of books I purchased on knifemaking and has been a go-to resource for me so far. It has step by step details for each process along with an ample amount of photos to reference from. While there are alot of other books available on the market on the topic, for the price point, quality, and material presented, this book is a good purchase.
