This is the same original book with a new look and must for anyone interests in the history of Ruana Knives.  Reprinted in 2012, it tells the story from Rudy Ruana’s start in knife making, to his son-in-law, Vic Hangas joining him in the trade, to present day operations at Ruana Knife Works, Inc.  Sections include insight into Rudy’s life, previously published articles, customer comments, technical information on older knives and their markings, past brochures and price lists.  It’s what we use as a resource for dating old Ruana Knives.
