Reference Library

This photo album is a living visual list of the books in my personal library that are invaluable to me in terms of knowledge, source information, and identification of the edged pieces I collect.
In total, they cover the world of Swords, Bayonets, and Knives, along with other historical and cultural weapons of interest.
For me, having such a library is like having a support staff as I continue to grow my weapons collection.

Hey - tell your "friend" that I appreciate the feedback...all fixed!

And yes, that fabulous suite of Military Daggers is in production as we speak. Always nice to have a fan!

Thanks dude -

Just an off-topic tidbit...

Does your 'e' key have trouble sticking or something?  Just checking...  for a friend...   ;)

Very cool!

I heard a rumour you may have had a set of books by Kurt Glemser - Guide to Military Dress Daggers Vol. I - IV...

Knowing how you like your daggers, I am inclined to accept the validity of the rumour.  Just need your verification though.

Nice library though.
