Book Reviews of Sevillian Steel: The Traditional Knife-Fighting Arts Of Spain

Book Review: A Book For Knife Lovers
Summary: 5 Stars

Finally there is a book that presents knife combat from a European perspective. Sevillian Steel provides the rudiments for using the Spanish knife along with information on the men who used it. Although the narrative flows very smoothly, the book's many chapters are filled with little-known facts concerning knife openings, carrying methods, offensive and defensive techniques, and other relevant information. The author's knowledge is evident from the detail of his explanations. In an area dominated by "instructional manuals" based on authors' preferences, Sevillian Steel's fresh and objective content is a long-overdue and welcome change.
