Lots of information in one place. Lots of charts and conversion tables. Excellent quality of paper used.

Maybe make it about 25% bigger or use a slightly bigger font.

All of the information is useful, though I wish there was more information on plastics due to the industry trends.
Pros
It has all of the information I could want for machining metals.
Cons
The plastics portion of the handbook is lacking. I feel with how common injection molding plastics are, there should be a section on tooling/processing thermoplastics.
Very usefull

Solidly made book. Only flaw is that the holes for the binding have some extra paper in them and some pages are hard to turn.

Pocket size means it does not take up a lot of space

It would be nice if the pages were heavier and laminated

Its a great book for quick reference with so much information in one place. The included stick on tabs are good as well. a weird point, but its strange to put the origins of the imperial system on the front cover of the metric book.
Pros
Nice resistant coating on the pages, well laid out information.
Cons
Sad it no longer contains a drill point sharpening guide, feels like thinner pages compared to the 2nd version?
Quick and easy reference
