Honda Samer you know for a fantasy enthusiast, Daniel's lack of respect for the knife is appalling. Keep the kitchen knife properly stowed and sharp so as to avoid injuries. And please use a foldable sharp knife for day to day package unboxing use! Have a proper holstered hunting knife Bowie style or whatever. Won't be recommending this vid. Totally irresponsible. Not even into the unboxing after that. Saying you were careful with a knife when your actions showed otherwise is "on-brand 2020"
Every single Signature is real. For every book they sell. After all Brandon did sign them all for 5 streams in January. I am waiting for mine to be shipped, hopefully soon.
@@begejekan1244 Definitely! Did you see his recent Insta post? "The local bookshop ran out of signed copies of my books, so I went over and did some more signing."
Honestly never been more invested in an unboxing. Spending so much on something and it being worth it is such a relief. Please be careful with the knife. If hand sanitizer can damage the aesthetic of the books, I'm pretty sure blood wouldnt be the best thing to get on them.
My girlfriend gave me the money to get a signed and numbered edition for my birthday and I've spent the last two days staring at in awe. Its the most beautiful thing I own. My girlfriend's response: "I want our books published like that" Big dreams XD
Having been a Navy Lithographer who did a LOT of book bindery, and having served as an acting Government Printing Officer for over a year at my place of employment, from what I am seeing, that is some super-fine bindery work. I can't speak for the signature stitching and gluing, but the leaf foil, and leather treatment/foiling, that is some superb, high-quality workmanship. Just looking. That 3d embossed foiling is really hard to get right even with modern machinery. It's gorgeous looking at it. Touch IS the only way to tell real quality of bindery in these situations. If Daniel's tactile experience is good ( I noticed he checked his hands for foil residue a couple times), It's worth the price. Those illuminated plates are absolutely wonderful. Let me say, the work involved with making, trimming and inserting those nicely aligned plates is extremely labor-intensive. Careful opening the books, folks. There are videos on how to properly open and prepare a now book's spine for reading without cracking it.
I just got mine today too, it would have been impossible to cut the book without significant force. They put two layers of some thick bubble wrap in there
I love the Kaladin art??? He looks BEAUTIFUL. Also love that art of the Parshendi, I've always had trouble visualizing them and that art makes them look so beautiful
I know the math doesn’t add up but somehow I feel like Daniel could be the kid from the “let me see what you have” “A KNIFE” vine. ALSO the leather bound editions are absolutely gorgeous holy shit. The exterior is beautiful but I love that there’s so much art inside the book, too.
FYI: Brandon did handsign all of these. He did his livestreams signing them. Probably at some point in the future he won’t be able to keep doing that but all the kickstarter ones are handsigned.
so these will be purchasable in the future? Because I was really hoping on getting my hands on one of these but it just isn't really in the cards for me right now.
@@wraithdevourer3613 They said they're gonna do another printing round but probably not until the end of next year. There's like 30,000 of them being made for the Kickstarter alone.
@@wraithdevourer3613 They said that they will try to keep all leatherbounds in stock forever. As in, they’ll reprint them indefinitely (but they can and do go out of stock temporarily). But probably at some point they won’t be able to keep up with signatures anymore.
It's really nice to see an author really care for how much value the reader gets for the money and really spend time to make this satisfactory to the customer. I'm currently reading the way of kings and I'm enjoying it so far!
I was eating an orange while watching this and got the sudden urge to wash my hands. Cant wait for this to arrive in Germany, few days to go! Keep up the good work Daniel, i love your content.
Oh noch ein deutscher Backer! Sei gegrüßt. Wir scheinen in einer illustren Runde zu sein, wenn ich das richtig in Erinnerung habe gehen nur etwa 400 Leatherbounds nach Deutschland. :)
There is a video out there called 'creepy chess comments'. Having watched it makes Daniel whispering 'leather bound' becomes so much funnier. I encourage people to watch that.
As someone who has these books, the construction is truly incredible. Like, on par with or above something like a family heirloom bible. They’re so well made, and it totally matches the stormlight archive
I just got my Mistborn Leatherbound last week I plan on getting them all, I must say quality is outstanding, price is high so I got to collect them slowly especially with an additional $50 delivery to get it to Australia
Can't wait for them to begin selling these on their website. Being in my final semester of my master's course I couldn't afford the kickstarter but I'll use my first wage to buy one of these bad boys for sure
@@mattymoore6981 I think they discussed it on a recent livestream. They're only now delivering the first batch of books to the people who backed the kickstarter. During the first half of next year they'll begin to send out the second batch, I believe to those who only bought the book or put in late orders during the kickstarter, but I could be wrong. All I know is that all the books who currently have a set delivery date will go to those who have already put in an order. Then I think they said on the livestream that they'll try to put new books on their website some time late next year
I got delivery notification my books arrive the same day that RoW is being delivered so I have all 3 coming at the same time. It's like having a birthday
I know that the artwork at 5:53 and 6:04 (at the right) was used for the French edition if you are wondering about it (I might have been used elsewhere before but I don't know about it).
I wish there was a viable way to get editions of fantasy books that were styled like a medieval bible, with lore appropriate marginalia and all. That would be something amazing.
Those books look absolutely gorgeous. I am so hungry to devour the Way of Kings now. Thanks for sharing such a feast for the eyes. Also, I am now 30% into the Fires of Heaven and I am 54% into listening to Warbreaker. Maybe once I get done with that, it will be time for me to dive into the Way of Kings.
What? I didn't even receive my poster yet, and you already have the leatherbounds! I have to confess, I'm a little jealous... They are so beautiful, can't wait for mine to arrive.
You've single handedly made me want to get them. The art alone. Ive listened to them on audible, but I've wanted to buy them all and read them for a while now. Now I need to read them in the leatherbound edition for sure.
I hope they look in the flesh as good as on video. Payed 553,85 € for the whole thing and still don't know if I have to add another 19% for Taxes....which would make it a whopping 659,08 €
Someday, if I had a nice bookshelf. Would seem out of place on the chipped fiberboard shelves I dug out of my neighbors garbage. But some day. A nice bookshelf and a wing back chair...
@@MRuby-qb9bd but its a catch 22. You don't have nice books because you don't have a good book shelf to put them on. You don't have a good bookshelf to put them on because you don't have any nice books. Got to start somewhere( although $200 is the cost of a nice book shelf)
Maybe spoilers? The back "Web art" as you called it. The last one you showed, is of the Void Binding powers. If you notice they connect in a different way. They also have one surge fewer. Just wanted to point that out in case someone wasn't already aware. Great job showing off the amazingly well-done book printing for a wonderfully well-written book.
I didn't get this as I don't have the money for it but I am glad you liked it! It really is beautiful and I am just happy to see it. I got the Dawnshard package that you could buy later though, it was much more reasonable economically and the shipping to Europe wouldn't be too horrible. I look forward to getting mine! (The shipping for the leatherbound and all the goodies would total to about half the price, and I really wanted some of those goodies, like the playing cards & bookmark etc)
I loved this unboxing so much, it was really well done and it was great to this high quality product even though I wasn’t able to get one myself due to my age and stuff so thank you Daniel :)
I just got mine today Daniel! I decided to open mine WHILE watching this video (for added effect, obviously 😆) You weren’t kidding. This sucker reeks of high-value. So excited to reread this epic book! Thanks for the wonderful videos. Keep them coming!
These are absolutely gorgeous. Now I want them. They outdid themselves. If that special edition of The Eye of The World had even added art or something it would have been great.
Can't wait for mine to show up - also can't wait for the rest of the series to be released in the same format. If there's going to be a series I want to display on my fancy bookshelf, this is it.
I just lived this vicariously and im excited to see them on the channel lol like choked up excited just to see inside them. Wish I was able to get a copy
The problem I have with these (and the reason I didn't buy) is that while these are great these books are part of a series so without the rest of the series being made in this style I am stuck with a mismatched set of books. Maybe once the series is done and they make a full set I will be able to get them
Truly a masterpiece. I openly wept at the end of the book. In Sanderson fashion it can be a slightly confusing slow burn initially, but it ramps up quickly and reaches avalanche mode. Just watch out, you might become fascinated by the cosmere and have to read ALL THE BOOKS
Just a heads up for anyone thinking about keeping them in the plastic, they did say in a livestream that it _could_ cause the books to grow mold. It apparently had happened to buyers of earlier leatherbounds. :/
Was just about to read chapter 58, but then saw this come up on TH-cam... this edition is a bit too rich for my blood, but I was extremely curious. Thank you so much for a look at it!
Amazon take note, that’s how you ship a book (books)! Twice Amzon have failed to ship me a copy of the Dune Delux edition (thanks for showing it of on your shelf and letting me notice it!) and both times the dust jacket and spine have been mangled due to being shipped in an oversized box with no padding...
I recently got the new 40th anniversary illustrated slipcase edition of Unfinished Tales, and as a long time hardcore Tolkien fan I had a similar reaction. It has illustrations by not one, not two, but three of the best Middle Earth artists: John Howe, Alan Lee, and Ted Nasmith!
They are beautiful! The Sanderson team should be very proud of their work. They have had a very busy year with the Way of Kings leather bound editions and Rhythm of War release. I am very excited to get both soon :)
AAfter reading most of Brandon's works I just bought the two first books of the stowmlight archive last week. I am now 2/3 done with Way of Kings and I am loving it so far. I love Kaladin and Syl is best girl. Yest I know, not exactly the right genre but I still think so. :-P I have also not warmed up to Shallan so we shall see.
That is the windrunner glyph, they will have one glyph for every book, the one with the order that is the focus of this book's flashbacks. Each glyph and order has a fixed colour assigned to it.
Fantastic review of what is becoming a favorite book of mine. I do love a good art piece book but i dont have the money to make one of those mine. Plus id want to display my artistic books in a common area where guests can see them. I dont have that now either. Nothing wrong with displaying broken in books either.
I have been informed he did sign them all so thats mega dope.
He did a lot of livestreams answering questions of the fans while he was signing the books.

Fantastic review of what is becoming a favorite book of mine. I do love a good art piece book but i dont have the money to make one of those mine. Plus id want to display my artistic books in a common area where guests can see them. I dont have that now either. Nothing wrong with displaying broken in books either.
When that trap started slappin thought I was about to see some Jordans on feet lol
