The Art of Modern Custom Knifemaking

Overview

"The Art of Modern Custom Knifemaking" by Dr. David Darom and Dennis Greenbaum is, in the words of the authors, "...the third in what has become a series of high-quality books on the wondrous art of custom knifemaking. Not intended as a "how-to book", this book was conceived instead as a way of providing a brief but comprehensive glimpse into the art of knifemaking, in the hope that the reader might come away with a much greater appreciation for the skill and artistry required to make the "oldest tool in the world". In addition to featuring those knifemakers who are more established and renowned for their work, we hoped this book would also provide a venue for new and up-and-coming knifemakers".This coffee table quality book has 252 pages and over 1500 original photographs. Certainly a fine addition to any library concerning knifemakers and their art.
