Great coffee table book
I bought this for my dad who loves camping and knives. He enjoyed flipping through it. The quality of the hardcover is nice. The only downside is it's in French, but the pictures speak for themselves.

Nice but not for me
The book is well-made and informative, but I found it a bit dry. Also, I can't read French, so I only looked at the pictures. It's a decent buy if you are a true collector, but I was expecting more.
