5.0 out of 5 stars Great reference among so few
A lot of good information in this book from Mr. Price!
I would have liked to see more info on obscure knives but I also understand there are only so many pages in the book(750 or so), what info is found between the pages is detailed and accurate.
A definite worthy addition to anyones library that collects knives.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not recommended.
If it wasn't for Case knives it wouldn't be much of a book.
There is some good basic information, about the same as included
in most knife books. Many many knife makers are not mentioned.
I purchase reference books on all my interest and with few
exceptions these books list a great percentage of the total
industry, not just a few as this...

2.0 out of 5 stars dont buy this book.....buy POCKET KNIFE TRADER'S PRICE GUIDE VOLUME 8, May 25, 2007

This review is from: The Official Price Guide to Collector Knives, 14th edition (Paperback)
Well its a typical price guide. The values in it are way overinflated and none of the knives actually bring that much money. It is also missing prices for several highly collectible knives.
The Case XX section of this book is kinda difficult to find what you are looking for.
If you are thinking of buying this book then dont, I would recommend POCKET KNIFE TRADER'S PRICE GUIDE VOLUME 8 it is much easier to figure out and has actual prices and it is cheaper. It is also fresh off the presses and is written by a group of people who are directly involved with Case and Tony Foster who knows everything about knives.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great book for knife collectors, July 10, 2009
This review is from: The Official Price Guide to Collector Knives, 14th edition (Paperback)
I purchased this book as a gift for my dad, he collects all types of pocket knives but he has a large amount of Case Knives. This book only had a small chapter on "Case" but he felt the book would be very helpful.

4.0 out of 5 stars More pocket knife mania, June 2, 2008

This review is from: The Official Price Guide to Collector Knives, 14th edition (Paperback)
I wanted a book to help me identify a bunch of pocket knives I had acquired and what they might be worth. This book helped me do that quite easily and I would recommend it to anyone with similar goals. "The standard knife collectors guide" by Ritchie and Stewart was also of equal value.

I would have liked to have seen more color photos and fewer copier quality pictures but the process was good enough to do what I needed. This book made it easier to discern differences among similar knives because of the detail that was included in knife types.
