Books on Switchblades

Post by Razor_54 »

I thought i knew quit a bit on autos, but it seems i still have alot to learn. Can some of you knife gurus out there, point me in the right direction. Had a couple of books from Paladin, Ace of Blades. Not very informative....

Hi Razor, All the books available are pretty much full of misinformation. Hang tight for a few months and you'll see some new books coming out. I know of at least 2. tydy :D

I thought I better add about Richard Langstons book. It is mostly on american switches and from what I hear is a nice book to have if you're into those. tydy

There is a new online magazine. (Shameless plug!)

Lots of good information! I'm suprised Tydy doesn't know about it!

Greetings, Mr. Razor54-

How timely of you to ask. I am just putting the finishing touches on my first book. A reference type information tome. I decided to break away from the tradtion pages-binding thingie, and my effort will be sure to be a collector's item, each issue hand written in brown stink on an industrial chafing quality continuous roll format. The first two people, oh, okay, the first any person to send in thier prepaid deposit will recieve an autographed first runs issue. All others can read the preview, stuck to the ceiling of finer bus station men's rooms everywhere.

P.S. When I'm rich and famous, I won't forget all of ye', my good ol' pals.

AS ever,

Your ol' pal,

Wally J. Corpse

Wally,
If True wealth comes my way, I'll remember your insights and the quality
they have added to life. You can have the prize at the bottom of the box, the rest I'll spend on teeth so I can make it to the bottom of the box. [I bought one new tooth Friday so we're on our way].

Greetings, Mr. Vagrant-

I'm truly dismayed that you forgot your ol' pal in your time of need. Didn't Doofus Emeritus tell you that I do a little pro bono dentistry on the side, along with my obvious talents at custom knife making and alley surgery, I would be honored to create a new, practically lifelike semi-comfortable tooth for ye'.

AS ever,

Your ol' pal,

Wally J. Corpse
