Query: Production quality brings it down

This book like the Knives Annuals are a useful resource if you don't mind the quirks. If you didn't like the paper in the Knives Annuals, it is even worse here. The phone book like similarities bring this book way down.In the maker directory it is hard to find names between bold listings of: phone, full or part time, making methods, specialty, price range, years making...sheesh! After trying to read some, I resorted to the earlier and much easier Knives Annuals.The writing is fine but I got the book to see the knives. What a disappointment. Not that there aren't knives but the paper quality kills it. The only quality pages are the ads for Schrade, Lansky, Case and Emerson.In a nut shell...ugh.
