In this book you will discover:
- The most cost-effective method to make your first knife
- How you can make your first sword, in just 17 steps, start to finish
- The 10 step method to forging a pattern welded Damascus sword
- 4 techniques that will 'reveal' the end grain texture of your Damascus knife

Here are the answers to some questions you might have about this book:
Q: I have never made a knife before. Can your book still help me to make swords and Damascus knives?
A: Yes. The steps laid out inside this book have been designed to guide even the person who has no experience making knives, so you can get started no matter what your skill level is!
Q: How is the author qualified to teach these bladesmithing techniques?
A: I, Wes Sander, am a bladesmith with several years of experience. I have forged many Damascus swords, knives, and katanas to effectively teach others how to do so.
Additionally, I have had the privilege to attend many BLADE conventions and other exhibitions to know the craft of other bladesmiths as well.
So yes, I would say I'm qualified to bring you results when teaching you how to make swords and knives.
Q: I don't have a lot of tools to start. Can I still make knives and swords using your book?
A: Only a few tools are required to start with this book. The rest you can make or acquire along your bladesmithing journey. The book even has a step-by-step guide to making your own forge. Even someone without a forge can start!
The number of ideas you can realise for your knives is directly related to your understanding of various bladesmithing techniques and the characteristics of different materials.
Get started before you find the perfect piece of stock steel, but are unable to forge it.

Terms of sale
ORDERING BOOKS : Since our internet stock is stored in a separate warehouse, email is a virtual
necessity for the initial inquiry. Please email orders using the Advanced Book Exchange order buttons.
If you use your own forms, we need the book number and book title to locate the book. If you
telephone first, please have our book inventory number and
title ready and please be prepared to call back later when we have had time to pull the book from
storage.
HOLDING BOOKS: After we confirm that a book is available, that book is placed on a temporary hold,
usually 24 hours or until 1 PM of the day following our confirmation whichever is less, to give you time
to order through ABE.
SHIPPING: We cannot quote shipping rates unless you give your full address. Domestic orders are sent
Media mail unless you request Priority mail. Media mail with delivery confirmation is $4 for the first
book and $1
for each additional book within the U.S. Media mail will usually take one to two weeks but can be
slower, especially near holidays.
Priority mail starts at $6 for the smallest books and goes up depending on the size and weight of the
book. This is available for domestic orders only and usually takes 3 to 4 days from the day we actually
mail the book.
These are the estimated delivery times that the Post Office gives us. These times cannot be guaranteed
due to the vagaries of the USPS.
Foreign orders will be quoted shipping based on location and the size and weight of the book.
Insurance is optional on foreign orders, but we will not be responsible for damage or loss if you choose
not to pay for insurance.
If an insured order does not arrive within 30 days of mailing, we can file an insurance claim to cover
your loss. This will require that you sign and return to us the insurance claim form that the Post Office
provides. We are not able to track or make any other inquiries about your order until 30 days have
passed.
RETURNS: Books may be returned for any reason within seven days of delivery. This delivery date will
be confirmed by USPS Delivery Confirmation which we place on every order within the USA. All we ask
is that a reason for the return must be given prior to you sending the book back to us. Books without
this prior return notification will be handled at our discretion and may be subject to additional handling
charges.
