How to Make Folding Knives by Wayne Clay distills 1990s bladesmith wisdom into a clear, illustrated textbook that guides hobbyists and serious makers through every step of crafting a working folder. The 192-page paperback pairs concise instruction with detailed line drawings, making the art of knifemaking approachable for young adults and adults alike.

This vintage 1994 edition shows gentle shelf love—scuffed covers frame clean, unmarked pages that lie flat thanks to a tight, uncracked spine. No inscriptions, dog-ears, or ex-library stamps mean the focus stays on the craft, not prior owners.

Collectors seeking a practical reference on blades, blade geometry, and the mechanics of folding knives will appreciate Clay’s collaboration notes with legends Ron Lake and Frank Centofante. The book doubles as both an educational resource and a nostalgic snapshot of pre-internet maker culture.

Whether you’re restoring tools, expanding an Art & Culture library, or gifting a bladesmithing primer, this affordable, well-kept copy offers durable guidance for the workbench.
