it works,

This review is from: NKJV Pocket Companion Bible: Signatures Series Edition (Leather Bound)
First of all another reviewer mentioned the workmanship was subpar. He must have got a lemon. Mine is splendid. It is a joy to hold as the leather melts into your hands. The gold edging gives it that touch of elegance. The print is large enough to be comfortably readable. The textual variants are documented at the bottom of the page which are great. The size is such that you can take it anywhere and read discreetly. Sometimes you just want to read unencumbered by notes and commentary; this Bible fits that bill.

This review is from: NKJV Pocket Companion Bible: Signatures Series Edition (Leather Bound)
I own two premium pocket bibles. One is this Nelson Signature Series and the other is the Cambridge Goatskin leather bible. I've read some bad review on these two and they are simply NOT true at all. The Nelson I've had for years and it's taken fairly heavy use and even some abuse at the hands of toddlers. Absolutely no problems. It's as strong and as good looking now as when it was new. Both these bibles are SMYTH SEWN. I have the signature in hand now and I'm looking at the threads running through the pages. I can't believe someone has the nerve to actually lie about a bible! I also own a Thompson Chain Reference Bible that has had major use and abuse for close to 20 years now and the binding is still holding together even though the crummy bonded leather has fallen apart. I have seen complaints on the type size. The Nelson is 7.5 and the Cambridge is 6.75. The resulting bible size difference is significant. The Cambridge is small enough to fit in my pocket where the signature fits into my wifes purse easily. If you need large print then a pocket bible is not for you so you shouldn't get one then trash the reviews because you can't see it. It's inherent in the whole pocket bible thing. Little. The red lettering is red in the Nelson and more maroon in the Cambridge. The maroon is easier to see but they're neither one hard to see. I also saw a complaint about paper quality. That's really insane. Only that nutty old librarian that can tell you where a book was printed by the smell could really tell a difference. What I'm saying is that if you want a pocket bible then these two are most assuredly the choices for you. Do you prefer a bit bigger and super soft tan calfskin leather or the classic black goatskin that'll fit in your pocket? Ignore the Pitt Minion gripes too. I mean who notices the silly reference boxes anyways. Down the side on the bottom or down the middle. Who cares?! They're virtually useless in any of these bibles anyways. Buy a cheap novice reference book and you'll be surprised with the amount of stuff not in the bible reference section. Even the illustrious Thompson Chain Reference is pitifully lacking. BUY ONE OF THESE STUFF IT IN YOUR POCKET OR PURSE AND READ IT EVERY CHANCE YOU GET. REMEMBE PSALMS 1:2, "IN HIS LAW HE MEDITATES DAY AND NIGHT." THAT'S THE POINT!! NOT IF MY WEE BIBLE HAS GLUE IN THE BINDING. OH FORBID I MIGHT READ THE THING THEN!! GOD BLESS EVERY ONE OF YOU THAT WOULD EVEN LOOK FOR A BIBLE!! THE WORLD NEEDS A LOT MORE OF YOU FOLKS!

I think this is a very nice pocket bible. If it had cross references and a concordance like their cheaper bonded leather w/snap, it would be great. If those two things aren't important to you then this is the one for you.
The quality is top notch. I believe this is my fifth Signature Series bible, only one of them was so so, it is the KJV Reference Edition. The only part I didn't like was the paper, it seemed like a lower grade. Outside of that all of them are without question the best I can find.
