Synopsis
Contemporary knifemakers are far more daring than their counterparts from as recently as a generation ago: they've become masters of new techniques and technologies, experts in reinterpreting form and function to create sculptural works of art. Flip through this amazing on-the-page gallery, and you'll discover a dizzying array of styles, from ones that demonstrate simple elegance to others that feature over-the-top embellishment. The collection includes daggers, kitchen knives, hunting knives, combat and folding knives, switchblades, multi-blades, swords, axes, tomahawks, and even a pistol-knife--all honed with fine creative vision.The international roster of artists includes: Don Hanson - Tim Hancock - Rebecca Sheer - Chantal Gilbert - Anders Hogstrom - Vince Evans - Frankie Flood - Johan Gustafsson - Allen Elishewitz - Jot Singh Khalsa - Wendy Yothers - and more, Contemporary knifemakers are far more daring than their counterparts from as recently as a generation ago: they've become masters of new techniques and technologies, experts in reinterpreting form and function to create sculptural works of art.

    The seller shipped this very quickly and carefully. The packaging was very thorough - soft-sided book was wrapped in tissue then cardboard was cut to match the size of the book. This was then taped closed and slipped into a padded plastic envelope. It was like unwrapping a treasure! The condition of the book was as described and the value was good. I've seen this book for less and more but I've never known a seller take so much care in shipping. As described.
