A Primer on Folding Knives

By Steven Roman

A Primer on Folding Knives is designed for both new and experienced knife users who want to expand their knowledge of folding knives.

Whether you want to buy one or two folding knives, start an entire collection of these beautiful and strangely compelling tools, or already have a collection, making informed buying decisions, or just getting more satisfaction out of your current investment in knives takes a bit of knowledge--knowledge about such things as knife terminology, knife anatomy, knife handle materials and especially the different types of steels used in knife blades.

There are literally thousands of folding knives on the market, ranging in price from under $40 for a surprisingly good-quality knife to over $25,000 and so making buying choices can be a bit bewildering. Hopefully, this little book will help you make smarter buying decisions.
