Review:

This is the fourth volume in the on-going series, and I must say,I think it is the best. The book has lots of very high grade rare Foreign daggers, many illustrated in full color. Additionally, there is a section showing many of these daggers being worn - something sorely lacking with this collector market. This beautiful book is 252 pages in length. Some of the chapters include the Swiss Army, East German Presentations, Turkish daggers, Youth Knives, the Koratorium Bohemia and Moravia dagger and much more. There are fantastic color photos of German Imperial Naval dirks, Bulgarian Flyers dirk, Turkish Naval w/ straps, Hlinka Guard - great stuff, here. Highly recommended purchase even if you do not collect these daggers - nice to know other markets. --Thomas Wittmann - Wittmann Antique Militaria

Kurt Glemser's volumes have left a lasting imprint on the blade collecting community, and will continue to do so for years to come. --LTC. (Ret) John R. Angolia
