In den WarenkorbStiff Wrappers. Zustand: Fine. First Printing. First Edition of this paean to the pocket knife, enumerating its benefits, shortcomings, and types (including the curved bistoury blade used by surgeons and the seventeenth-century typesetter's coping blade). Foolscap 8vo (101 x 67mm): 36pp, with three full-page plates, decorative i…nitials, and three supplement leaves printed one side only, neatly folded and tipped in at rear. Publisher's burnt orange stiff wrappers printed in black, fore-edge untrimmed. No limitation given, but probably fewer than 150 copies printed, based on Cheney's usual edition sizes for similar items. A fine copy, virtually pristine, of this scarce near-miniature book. Will Cheney at 90 (Clark Library), p. 22. Cheney printed an expanded second edition in 1968, incorporating the information from the first-edition supplements, including, from the Third Supplement, notes on the jackleg knife, which Cheney says was a favorite of wood engraver Thomas Bewick, who "says in his memoirs that returning from a late card game one night he met the devil on a lonely moor. On Bewick flourishing his 'Jackleg' knife, the devil stepped aside and let him pass." N. B.
