Arnie Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Hi am wondering if anyone can give me some suggestions on some good bladesmithing books? Preferably ones on smaller blades such as knifes but ones on larger blades are also welcome. I have mostly self taught myself this far but I have gotten to the point where I need more information and guidance. Thanks for your time.

mick maxen Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Have a look for books by Jim Hrisoulas. There are three that I know off, The Complete Bladesmith, The Master Bladesmith and The Pattern Welded Blade. All 3 are showing as available on amazon uk so they should show up for you. Mick.

Steve Sells Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 I love and have the 3 books by Dr Jim Hrisoulas, his 4th is soon to be released and that includes a bit from Bob Egnath as well. Dont forget to buy a copy of the $50 knife shop. a must have for any bladesmith, written by Wayne Goddard this one sells for about $10.
