Summary

"Humans are vulnerable creatures by nature. A willingness to survive, to fight, not flee… is what drove to us to create the knife. Knives gave us the ability to become warriors, to conquer fear, and establish ourselves as the dominant species on this planet. It became our responsibility to provide a safe haven for those we love, to protect and sustain what we have worked so hard to build. It is this tool, that gave us the motivation we have, because it gave us the undeniable advantage, the opportunity to dream. This was the first tool humanity mastered. We learned the capability of the knife as we migrated into other realms of human consciousness and cemented our existence on earth. We are all survivalists at heart, and it is the knife that will continue to push humanity to unprecedented heights." - A.J. Cardenal

Knife Bible, History & Modern Knowledge is the first volume of a series books that will open the door to a world we are innately familiar with as humans... the world of knives, and everything they embody. As the reader you will embark on a journey that will take you through time, from the Stone Age to modern day. Knife Bible will help you grasp a better understanding why the knife is humankind's most important tool and why our current society should embrace the very tool that enabled us to become the dominant species on this planet.
