There's nothing better than spending time in the presence of an experienced knifemaker, except maybe, learning a few tricks of the trade. In this revised edition of Wayne Goddard's $50 Knife Shop, Wayne walks you through creating a cost-effective shop of your own, and enhancing your knifemaking skills by getting back to the basics.

This go-to guide covers:

• Tools needed to make knives, and outfit a personal workshop without breaking the bank
• Forging and heat-treating techniques, to help improve existing bladesmithing skills
• 250 color photos demonstrate basic knife making techniques
