Terry, we do have a books a literature group here which we hope to add more titles to here is the link to the group:

http://www.iknifecollector.com/group/kniferelatedbooksandliterature   

There are some good mentions there. One new one I picked up well old actually is Official Price Guide to Collector Knives. by C. Houston Price and Mark Zalesky. I am sure most of the books mentioned in the group or here are available online or through eBay.

Older knives, say pre 60's are hard to find on-line partly because you don't know the condition. Better to read, gain some experience and branch out to Flea Markets and Pawn Shops. If you can find a few and see them in a book you will better know value. Eventually you may buy some online once you know what to look for. Some knife shows are good to go to as well and you might just see some vintage knives at those.
