New Folder Book!
I just got my copy of Art & Design in Modern Folding Knives! This is truly the finest book ever printed on folding knives. Plus the added small technical info from each maker in a tutorial of something they do special. It makes it a fantastic text book also. All full color, printed on heavy paper, this is really a wonderful book. All at the price of only $65!!! It will be available at Barnes & Noble and amazon.com soon. Here is the cover and some pages from it. Each featured artist has 8 pages.
  Example of one artists section.  2 pages from my section.  Steve Lindsay's engraving section.

John Lewis Jensen has updated his website with a reference to this book.
 "This knife was commissioned specifically for inclusion in a very special forthcoming book entitled "Art and Design in Modern Custom Folding Knives", by Dr. Dav## Darom to be available for $60, (please refer to the Moon Storm page for further detailed information on this knife as well as the book) Moon Storm also features the debut of my own Damascus."
