Excellent review! I have both and you did a fair comparison.
Thank you!! I’m not an expert but I do my best. Soli Deo Gloria
Lol I have been debating between these two and that color thanks for your video!
Hope it was helpful. It’s a tough choice.
I love ribbons and I appreciate the longer ones that the Allans have
Yeah my fav's are the Allan and Schuyler ribbons. Nice and thick and long. Thanks for watching!!
I have the Allan coming in Petrol Blue Meriva Calfskin. $258 shipped. The Topaz is available thru Evangelical Bibles but it’s $295. I own an Allan NASB reader in Purple Goatskin and love it. Pretty much flawless. Good thing because it was nearly $300. Good comparison. Thank you.
Petrol Blue!! Nice. I have a good friend who loves his purple bibles! Glad the video was helpful!!
If the Allan were a verse by verse, I would definitely choose it over the topaz.
I really love the Petrol Blue Alland ESV nc2
It's a nice one!!! and Blue is my favorite color!
If I could only have one Bible, it would the Allen. That Bible is everything ki would want my Bible to, every aspect of it in terms of the book block. It would be a killer if the Allen had raised hubs. This is the Bible I'd give an arm and leg to own. I kind a stopped looking at videos of this particular Bible because I can't have it, so it's a torture to see it. Lord, oh how I would love to have this particular Allen ESV Classic Reader in whatever colour.
Thank you for sharing this comparison. Very well done. And this will be the last time I look at this Bible. I can't take the torture anymore.
Well brother. Maybe someday. Till then…enjoy what you have!
Soli Deo Gloria
@@ClaimingChristianity Amen. The best Bible in the world, I believe, is the one you have and read. No matter the state it's in.
@@edwardgraham9443 truth👆👆
How is the red letter in the topaz? I’m thinking about getting one but I am concerned about inconsistency. I heard it’s pretty inconsistent around John chapter 7 is that correct?
I agree about the ribbons, although RL Allan has gone way too long too, hahaha, but you can always cut them a bit shorter (1 inch shorter than that would be my sweet spot)
Yeah. The more I read my Allan. The more I agree. There just a bit too long. But info love my ribbons. Lol
@@ClaimingChristianity you are right 👉 I love long ribbons too
I like the layout of the Topaz, but I'd like the option of a black letter text. I do agree that they could improve on things like ribbons and yapp (not to mention that the calfskin versions of the Topaz are still made with paste-down liners instead of edge lining). I'm sure they could manage a bit more ribbon and leather considering what they charge for the goatskin version, and considering that the Allan would probably only be ~$15 more...
Yeah...I'm not sure why Cambridge struggles with the ribbon. I like the yapp on my allan and I"m getting a rebind with a full yapp...but I don't mind the standard cut on the topaz.
The Cambridge paste down is very well executed and is arguably just as durable as the edge lined. The benefit of the paste down is that the Bible opens flatter despite having a stiffer cover.
Like. The topaz vbv but the reference marker letters are harder for me to read so I stuck with Allan's
If I had to pick...it would be the Allan. Thanks for watching!
If they took the reader layout and made it verse by verse and changed the color of the verse numbers like Cambridge. I think you would have a pretty hard to beat layout.
Agreed!
Does Cambridge make a NASB95? I know Schuyler and Allen do.
I think some of these are 95’s

So, over one year later, which would you use as an EDC?
Great question. Allan hands down
@@ClaimingChristianity wow! May I ask why? I don’t have the Topaz and curious about it. I love my Allan ESV NCR, btw.
Interestingly enough…I’m not using my Topaz as my EDC. And I’m loving it. so it’s funny to look back at these things. I guess our needs/wants change. Lol
The Trevaris is single column but the verse numbers are along the side. The Quentel is more comparable to these two.the cross references are on the bottom however.
Thanks for letting us know!! Hopefully I’ll be able to check them out someday soon.
I am not a ribbon fan. 2 at the most. No need for 3 or 4 ribbons. I also dont like the long ribbons the Allen bible has. Kudos to Cambridge for the short ribbons.
Good times!! I’m glad you shared. I’m always interested in what everybody prefers
@claimingchristianity no problem! I'm a big fan of your channel and appreciate your reviews on bibles and your library. I've been getting into systematic theology lately and Robert Lethams version has been one I'm thoroughly enjoying.
Thank you so much for the support and encouragement!
Soli Deo Gloria
I don't need more ribbons. I could do v without them tbh.
I know some folks who actually got them out. It’s a real personal thing I guess. I cut mine when I was younger. No I need more. Lol. I guess things change. Lol. Thanks for the comments!
I do not care about ribbons, 1 ribbon max at most.
