Got mine yesterday. Awesome book! If you don’t have your copy yet you need to get one. Worth the prices just for the excellent photos. A lot of great tips too!

How many of the 384 tips were new to you? Just curious- I may have to get the book but want a little more feedback before dropping the $.

A good many were new but a lot of them were things that I had read before and had forgotten. Haven’t finished it yet but very pleased with my purchase.

Got this one as a freebie on the intro page about the book. Certainly makes sense.

• Harvey Dean said the tool that made the biggest difference in his work was a riding lawnmower. If you can find faster ways to get the chores done, you’ll have more time to make knives.

I agree. I purchased a Zero Radius Turn mower a few years ago. It not only mows the grass faster, but the BEST PART is that my wife loves to use it - and that means I don't mow the grass any more. She's happy and I'm really happy!

Said like a true man that might say ‘it’s a sad thing when a man plants a garden to large for his wife to keep up’. :
I’ve done it several times

Don't have a zero turn, but do have a John Deere! What is their tag line..... "It's not how fast you mow, it's how well you mow fast!"

when a man plants a garden to large for his wife to keep up’

THAT is priceless!

Great book Jason. You did a great job putting it together. It will be in the knife shop for everyone that comes through to look through it.
