The blame is entirely yours, Tim. I'd never heard of Schuyler at the start of the year--now I have 3 of their bibles: a PSQ ESV, a Treveris ESV, and the RSV Quentel. It's been difficult avoiding full disclosure to my wife of what I've spent on these beauties! Many, many thanks!
thats hysterical!!! now that its been a year can you tell me which of these you still like the best and why. and can you tell me if you have any of the Cambridges like the Topaz? and if so which would you suggest for someone buying JUST ONE?!!!
Oh my gosh… I watch a video of yours and say “Okay, that is the Bible I want.” Then watch the next video…”oh, now THIS is the Bible I should have” and that happens with every video LOL! Absolutely love your reviews and am learning so much!
Very helpful, Tim! I just wish Schuyler would produce the 36gsm paper again. I love that my Allan 53 has it, and it is a very noticeable difference when I switch over to my Treveris and PSC
Thanks for the review Tim. Schuyler did tell me that after the 36 gsm is gone in the remaining NIV’s that they’ll be going to a 28 gsm like the rest unfortunately. I went ahead and bought 2 of them while I could to get the thicker paper. I just think that the ghosting on the 28 gsm looks horrible. I’m really not a fan of this new fad of having to make Bibles thinner and thinner to appease the little girly men that can’t carry a real Bible. I mean who wants see-through tissue paper in a $200 plus Bible?? To me a thicker paper just says quality. I think their wide margin 40 gsm is perfect. Superior quality and readability. Hopefully Schuyler see’s the light someday soon. That’s just my opinion.
I really wish they'd expand the Canterbury to other translations. Having a double column verse by verse by Schuyler would be great! I love and own a quentel ESV but might go and get a Topaz from Cambridge for preaching. Thanks Tim, your videos are helpful for sure.
Oh I feel the same! The NASB is my favorite and to see them make it in that would make me so happy especially with the wonderful fancy letters at the front of chapters. What are those called?
I recently (last year) purchased the ESV Treveris w/ full yapp in green goat skin....it's the most beautiful Bible that I own and my favorite to read through. Thanks to you, I am also about purchase the Immerse set as a homeschool resource/book club. Thanks for your reviews.
I just bought my first Schuyler Bible! I bought the CSB PSQ in marbled mahogany calfskin. I wish there was a size between the PSQ and the quentel, but nonetheless, it is beautiful. Everything you have said about Schuyler is spot on. This is the nicest Bible I’ve ever owned.
Thank you Tim. Great presentation. The Treveris is a great option that needs more love. I hope it gets offered in more translations but I am very happy with my ESV; it is my daily reader.
I have a few Schuylers, bought the Schuyler NIV Quentel for my wife and love the 36gsm paper, the Bible does not feel too thick. I also have a CSB Quentel with the 28gsm paper and I love the layout, not crazy about the thinner paper. I do have ESB and NIV PSQ's and I'm fine with the 28gsm paper on them. Beautiful Bibles from Schuyler, I just prefer 36gsm across the board on the larger ones.
I own a Schuyler Treveris KJV, but it's not my favorite. It's brick red and not real ruby red like I was hoping. It is goat skin which I love, but it's a 6x9 size and in book form which I found out is not my fave at all. I don't care much about cross -references either. Now, after reading what your friend wrote😄 about Bible colors, I'm more fond of purple KJV's instead. I love studying the Word of God and I'm glad we have you to review Bibles before we buy them! 😃 Keep on keeping on! Your reviews helped my hubby and me choose a green Schuyler Bible for our daughter this past Christmas!👍
Great fun overview, Tim! Thank you. I am waiting for more of the Stridon in other versions and colors. I wish that Schuyler would produce a single column, verse by verse, with inner column references and the 36 GSM paper (or even the 40GSM). Love that heavier paper! I really enjoyed this overview. And, WOW that's a lot of Schuylers on your desk! LOL
Swell overview Tim: My understanding is that SCHUYLER will be publishing hopefully in 2024 a Canterbury Series Edition of the AUTHORIZED [KING JAMES] VERSION which also includes the AV/KJV translations of the books called Apocrypha. If so...I hope SCHUYLER makes it available in a "red letter edition" that not only recognizes and attributes the words of JESUS in the New Testament, but also to words that can be "reasonably referenced" to Our LORD in the Old Testament and the Apocrypha...! Wouldn't that be "awesome"...? Continue to keep all of us "Bible addicts" [...LOL...😂...] updated...!
I never heard of them until I saw your videos and got my first one ! It’s so dang nice . I love it ! I got the dark purple KJV . I’m newer into my faith in Jesus and I wanted just a traditional Bible I can pass down if I have children . But now I have a bunch of other cheaper bibles and I need to get a NASB and would also like a NLT from them… unfortunately I’m broke! lol
I heard so much good things about them that I bought a full yapp Canterbury a while back, a costly purchase considering the freight cost over here to Norway added to the cost of the Bible itself, but oh boy, it was worth it! I don't think I could choose between that and the Cambridge Turquoise, and that is really saying something!
@@destinycoach5 Between Schuyler and Cambridge in general or the regular size Canterbury vs the Turquoise specifically? Short answer is that I like both publishers, but for different things. I like the scanned plates in the Turquoise/Concord/Cameo, it gives a vintage feel to them, but unfortunately that was also the days when they did self-pronouncing texts which I find to be a pain to read. The boldness of the font, paper quality and construction quality also goes to Cambridge I'd say. For Schuyler (I only have the Canterbury, but I have two regular size and just ordered my second personal size), I love love love their calfskins! And the dropcaps are beautiful, and the fact that they include a glossary over archaic words and ones that have changed meaning over time. All-in-all, I'd say Schuyler for joy of reading and esthetic pleasure, but Cambridge for durability. Ease of reading is a tie since Cambridge both have bolder font AND the annoying self-pronounciation. But you'd be hard pressed to be unhappy with either.
@@destinycoach5 PS: If I only had one Bible and had to use it for the rest of my life, I'd go Cambridge Cameo, probably one of the blue or green edgelined goatskin versions. It is very readable (minus the above mentioned self-pronounciation) but not cumbersome to carry, and it is as close to bulletproof as a book can get. But that might not be the size you are after?
@@WeldingForJesus thank you Welding. That was very helpful. I don't believe I have looked at the Cameo so will give that a look. Isn't it interesting that we just can't get it all on one. Cambridge has bolder font which is good for older eyes. But esthetics is Schuyler. It's always the way isn't it. Ok... Just for kicks n giggles let's add in another shall we??...... HUMBLE LAMB Shepherd which has incredible specs: 32gsm paper (over the 28 of other two) 6x9 9pt font which is tad small. I Prefer 10. Blue letter which I love over the red. Single col which I've never used so I have no idea if id prefer over 2 col. What I do like tho is the extra white on page for I'm a note taker. Lots of maps and of course the paintings. I'm curious what did the shipping cost you to get to Norway. I'm in Canada so have to do international shipping also. Appreciate your input Welding. Thank you.
@@destinycoach5 Yes, if only we could customize our favourite Bible from the various traits of the publishers and models! What a beautiful dream that would be. I have never heard of the Humble Lamb before, but 36 gsm and blue letters sounds awesome! The size is a bit of a turnoff for me though, 9x6 would be about the same as the Canterbury regular and Turquoise and I find myself only using them at home by a table since they are too unruly to hold laying down and not very pocket friendly either. Does it come in a personal size or compact? Then you might find the Cameo font size too small, it is only an 8 point, but it is extremely crisp and with both bold letters and very opaque paper it reads more like a 9,5 in my subjective opinion. Look it up for fun, it is not extremely uncommon so you might find a physical one to look at? If you decide to go for it, be aware that there is a difference between the black edge lined one and the blue or green ones. The latter two has leather liners but the black one has a polyurethane one. I personally never had one fail me, but others have experienced them degrading over time, which is why I recommend the blue or green. And afaik all calfskin/calfsplit options have paste-down, so I'd not go for those either. Now you're going to have a laugh, but the only option over here from Evangelical Bibles was FedEx, and it cost me 96 USD! 😳 Which is why I usually would prefer buying at least two Bibles when first ordering (couldn't afford it this time though and didn't wanna miss the pre-order). I guess the cost will be way lower to Canada though. And I love talking Bibles, both format and content all day, so it is all my pleasure.
As always, I enjoy your Bible review videos. I can't count the times I have been to Evangelical Bible to look at their Schuyler Bibles, but I finally ordered the Quintel NASB Bibe in Firebrick red. I went for the full-size vs Personal size because of the larger font 11 vs 8.5 point. I have been looking for about a year. I was worried that the 1995 translation might be replaced by the 2020 one so I decided to order now. I still will read my ESV study Bible, but for just Bible reading I will use the Quintel because of its smaller weight. Thanks again for your videos that helped me make my decision.
Spoiled for choice! Would be awesome to have a Schuyler new testament only and truly small (mini even) premium options, too. Pocket Size Treveris New Testament (pocket as in back pocket of jeans). It would need to be text only, single column, paragraph--316 publishing almost got it with the LSB, but VBV/double column takes away from the point of reading on-the-go.
Hey tim, i want that westminister bible. Pretty much you’re showing off those beautiful bibles 😂 base on your collection you’re doing fine so sell me that one please😂 im drooling
So very educational! Thank you so much for all you have done. I am actually working my way through many older videos simply for the knowledge to be gleaned from then, it's just fantastic. Thank you so very much.
I just learned so much in this video presentation, thank you, about how Bibles are formatted. What I learned serendipitously though is that those who make these either don't read them or have a weird sense of humour: I would rather own a sheep or lamb skin than a goat skin any day :-O :-D
Historically and pragmatically goatskin was used for Bibles because it was cheaper, plentiful and more durable. Sheepskin is very soft and doesn’t suit Bible binding. Calfskin is becoming more available due to advances and techniques, as well as demand. 🤷♂️
I just wish they would have included the original translator footnotes with their KJV. All their other, I have the RSV, ESV and NKJV, all include the original notes. But they are incredibly nice.
Hi Tim, Thank you for your videos and sharing your thoughts on beautiful premium bibles. Question - if you had to chose just ONE bible from Schuyler in ONE translation, which one would it be?
I have the ESV PSQ and WM, do you think it is worth getting the standard Q? or not really? I also really enjoyed the lunch and learn that you did last week with the SoBC.
Thanks! The regular Q has the largest typeface of the three... and it's a bit more portable than the WM. If either of those things sounds appealing, I definitely think it's worth it.
Beautiful Bibles but for many of us, the 11 point Milo font used in the Quentel seems absurdly large. I understand we all have different preferences but I find the 10 point font in the NLT and RSV Quentels to be much better. It’s unfortunate that Schuyler has apparently said they will only use 10 point font in a Quentel when they introduce entirely new translations to the product line (like the NLT and RSV). I hope that changes, Check out the NLT Quentel - it’s fantastic.
It would be great if you could present the RL Allan Bibles, past and present. As these are collectible it would be nice to discover what is in the used market by attributes and the crazy coding system Allan deploys. Sort of this….. Say I want an ESV, reference Bible, with larger print. What has Allan marketed in the past? What should I wait for to return?
I've heard Schuyler won't be offering slate goatskin so much anymore. I think that will be sad if its true. I think its a great design. That slate Quentel you have there looks really good. I'm glad I got a PSQ in slate. Also, something I thought of after you revealed all new Quentel typesettings will have a 10pt size text, what will happen with the PSQs of those typesettings? Scaling down the page with the text as is will result in a text of less than 8pt...
That's really interesting. I am glad I have all the Schuyler bibles as we know them, before they change type sizes as you suggest. I have slate Canterbury and the leather is superb. I have just bought my 4th PSQ and after giving my NKJV purple Quentel away a few weeks ago I have bought the green which I also have new in the PSQ, both in ESV, which are my final bible buys forever. I have 20 premiums Cambridge, Allen and Schuyler and I am comlpletely satiated!
I've wondered that same thing, Grant... not quite sure how that would impact the PSQ. I imagine it would be slightly smaller as well, but perhaps they can work around that and keep it at 8.5pt.
@@timwildsmith If the keep it at 8.5pt, they would probably not be able to keep the pagination? I suppose that's not a big thing, but it was a nice feature, and made things easier for them, just having to scale the size of the text...
I love your videos. I want to buy all of the Bibles but you helped me figure out which ones were good for me. I have 2 Schuyler and 1 Alan and I love them. They are so amazing and a joy to read. I have one question. I know you don’t do this but you might help me understand. Why do some people on UA-cam scribble all over the pages of the Bible. Some cover the entire page. They are illegible. Please answer my question. Maybe I’m wrong. Maybe I’m ignorant. Maybe that’s a new fad. I’m old and having a hard time trying to keep up with new ways of doing things But Gods word to me is sacred and it doesn’t make sense to me
I'm glad I can help, Berta... There's a whole new world of Bible journaling and art... maybe that's what you've seen is people who like to draw and take notes in their bibles in pretty ways.
Why is the Stridon the only edition in which there are translator notes, while all the others only have references? This is the one thing I don't like about Schuyler Bibles. Enjoyed your review...thanks...!
I love the text blook of the older edition by Trinarian Bible Society. You mentioned that Schuyler doesn't make that one any more. Any suggestions for a premium bible with that type of text block?
Brother Tim wildsmith my name is caleb i am an indaian i need Schuyler caxton bible green colour how can i get please could you send me any link to bye
Hey Tim, I just bought my first NIV Schuyler Quentel and wondering is it normal for there to be bold dark print in some areas and light print in others?
Tim - I just ordered the Tuscany calfskin PSQ and thought it was a saddle color leather because that’s what it looks like at evangelicalbibles. But it definitely looks yellow in your video. Is it yellow??
I hope they come out with a center column reference, personal sized ESV. 9pt type. This is my favorite layout, but there isn't a line matched edition out there.
@@timwildsmith I'm not. I've never seen a Schuyler Bible in person, and will probably never see one. I might save up for an Esv Psq in the new aniline leather that will be coming. If not, I'll stuck with my Esv large print compact. It works OK. Too much ghosting though.
@@Creationhorse I was waiting about a year to actually find a Schuyler in person, gave up, good luck! I recently bought a couple and they're flawless AFAIK, worth climbing the escalating commitment ladder though ..... NLT is hard to source anything nice so yes I did "need" a couple for me and my pastor that leans NLT, but I wouldn't buy more Schuyler without specialized usage needs. I prefer ESV so I'll likely get an ESV or two, likely a zippered PSQ because who else makes premium with zippers for EDC?
@@Creationhorse the hardest thing about justifying full premium ESV is the usual quality to cost disparity of Crossway products. They're well bound and less ghosty than the competition, IMO better formatting ... and ESV just reads good. I'll likely try some buffalo bound this year.
Nice overview. That was fun. So a question is, my questions is... should I write in...highlight in.. my ESV Full App Tuscany Calfskin bible when it comes in? Is anyone out there writing in their Schuyler bible? For me, I'm actually thinking about highlighting in mine. LMK what is ok and what is forbidden to do, in regards to note taking, studying, etc. Thanks!
The problem with Schuyler is and will be the paper, it's not competitive in the premium market anymore, Thomas Nelson premier collection and RL Allan both offer nicer bibles with better paper. As much as I want to love Schuyler I just can't with 28gsm paper.
I have to agree with you. I got a KJV Treveris, which I thought I'd love, and it would be the best one I owned. I so wanted it to be. But sadly not. I won't buy another with 28gsm paper
At least I know now that I’m not the only one that thinks this way. When you ask Schuyler over the phone about it they couldn’t sound more pleased with the paper and make it sound like everybody prefers it over the 36 GSM. I honestly don’t know what they’re thinking. I went ahead and bought a couple of the last NIVs with the 36 GSM paper but I will not be buying anymore until they go back to it.
Didn’t happen to make an Everything…RL Allan per chance? I’ve owned many premium Bibles from Cambridge to Schuyler and Crossway (one Lifeway) but traversing the Allan landscape has me befuddled with the acronyms and numbers?!
The blame is entirely yours, Tim. I'd never heard of Schuyler at the start of the year--now I have 3 of their bibles: a PSQ ESV, a Treveris ESV, and the RSV Quentel. It's been difficult avoiding full disclosure to my wife of what I've spent on these beauties! Many, many thanks!

Right?! I have a bible wish list now, there's a few I really want!
Great review Tim. It’s nice to see a run down of all the different options and taking the time talk about what they offer!
Glad you liked it!
You got me to buy the Schuyler Credo Quentel in blue goatskin. Can't wait for it to arrive. Thank you for the informative videos!!
Just got the psq full yapp green Esv
8” by 5.4” I love it
You helped me find the perfect Bible
Awesome!
Very helpful, Tim! I just wish Schuyler would produce the 36gsm paper again. I love that my Allan 53 has it, and it is a very noticeable difference when I switch over to my Treveris and PSC
It's a bit thicker for sure.
I'll second the 36gsm, particularly for the Quentels. 28gsm is fine for the PSQ but otherwise I don't mind the extra thickness.

You’re the perfect person to do this video - you have literally purchased everything Schuyler has to offer! I love my Schuylers - enjoying the video!
Yay! Thank you!
@@timwildsmith Now you’ve done it - I’m now looking for a personal size Canterbury - didn’t notice it came in that size!!
I really wish they'd expand the Canterbury to other translations. Having a double column verse by verse by Schuyler would be great! I love and own a quentel ESV but might go and get a Topaz from Cambridge for preaching. Thanks Tim, your videos are helpful for sure.
ESV with apocrypha makes it hard to not do so.
Oh I feel the same! The NASB is my favorite and to see them make it in that would make me so happy especially with the wonderful fancy letters at the front of chapters. What are those called?
Oh yeah drop caps
These Bibles are a work of art!
Love the Westminster! Have both sizes by TBS😊
Wish they still made them. Schuyler I mean
This was helpful! Thank you.

Very good and useful review, brother. Thanx!
Glad it was helpful!
Please produce a zipped NIV, Schuyler. Thanks!
Very helpful; thanks!
You’re welcome!
I have been wanting a Schuyler Bible for a few years. I bought my first and a year later I have three🤷♂️
This is such a helpful video. Thank you!
You are so welcome!
Stunning
I ordered The Schuyler KJV black Canterbury Pearl Bible but it won’t come in till April I’m soooooo excited to see it .
So very educational! Thank you so much for all you have done. I am actually working my way through many older videos simply for the knowledge to be gleaned from then, it's just fantastic. Thank you so very much.
Hey Tim, loved the video. Their Blue bibles are Imperial Blue, not Navy as mentioned in the video. Keep up the great work!!!!
Hi Tim! Great video!
You mentioned that the Stridon would be coming out in ESV. Do you know if it will be this year? (I hope so!)
Mid-to-late 2023!
@@timwildsmith yay! Thank-you!
@@timwildsmithcould the Stridon become Schuyler’s new flagship?
Great stuff!! Thanks Tim!!😊
You're welcome!
I know what my next purchase will be. The ESV Stridon
At the beginning of the year, I received a Schuyler Westminster and love using it. Have you considered making a video about it?
I just learned so much in this video presentation, thank you, about how Bibles are formatted. What I learned serendipitously though is that those who make these either don't read them or have a weird sense of humour: I would rather own a sheep or lamb skin than a goat skin any day :-O :-D
Historically and pragmatically goatskin was used for Bibles because it was cheaper, plentiful and more durable. Sheepskin is very soft and doesn’t suit Bible binding. Calfskin is becoming more available due to advances and techniques, as well as demand. 🤷♂️
@@filobiblic Thanks - I was being funny though and trying to reference Matt. 25 🙂
😳 I use a 16$ Nelson thin line , (used to be 9$ in 2018-19)
So many options to choose from . . .
An NIV Treveris would be wonderful as a reading Bible.
I just wish they would have included the original translator footnotes with their KJV. All their other, I have the RSV, ESV and NKJV, all include the original notes. But they are incredibly nice.
Hi Tim, Thank you for your videos and sharing your thoughts on beautiful premium bibles. Question - if you had to chose just ONE bible from Schuyler in ONE translation, which one would it be?
The new NLT PSQ is 🔥
I have the ESV PSQ and WM, do you think it is worth getting the standard Q? or not really?
I also really enjoyed the lunch and learn that you did last week with the SoBC.
Thanks! The regular Q has the largest typeface of the three... and it's a bit more portable than the WM. If either of those things sounds appealing, I definitely think it's worth it.
Ya, I have not watched yet.... I know all watching this video will do is make me want another Bible.... okay, I will yield to temptation.
Schuyler Bibles are definitely nice. Great information as usual and thanks for your review
You're welcome, Wayne!
I’m new to these bibles. I really love the detail they have and I am a sucker for premium bibles. Which would be best for preaching with?
I like the Quentel for preaching. Or the Stridon.
Beautiful Bibles but for many of us, the 11 point Milo font used in the Quentel seems absurdly large. I understand we all have different preferences but I find the 10 point font in the NLT and RSV Quentels to be much better. It’s unfortunate that Schuyler has apparently said they will only use 10 point font in a Quentel when they introduce entirely new translations to the product line (like the NLT and RSV). I hope that changes, Check out the NLT Quentel - it’s fantastic.
That Tuscany though. 😮
Would love a NKJV Quentel but they are so expensive, especially to ship to the UK.
Great review as usual
I appreciate that!
Such beautiful Bibles!
Will an ESV Stridon be released this year? Just heard the answer-"soon."
It would be great if you could present the RL Allan Bibles, past and present. As these are collectible it would be nice to discover what is in the used market by attributes and the crazy coding system Allan deploys. Sort of this….. Say I want an ESV, reference Bible, with larger print. What has Allan marketed in the past? What should I wait for to return?
Great idea!
Thank you
I just want a midsize Canterbury 😂 😊
Just want you to know you are awesome. 🎉🎉
Thank you!
I've heard Schuyler won't be offering slate goatskin so much anymore. I think that will be sad if its true. I think its a great design. That slate Quentel you have there looks really good. I'm glad I got a PSQ in slate.
Also, something I thought of after you revealed all new Quentel typesettings will have a 10pt size text, what will happen with the PSQs of those typesettings? Scaling down the page with the text as is will result in a text of less than 8pt...
That's really interesting. I am glad I have all the Schuyler bibles as we know them, before they change type sizes as you suggest. I have slate Canterbury and the leather is superb. I have just bought my 4th PSQ and after giving my NKJV purple Quentel away a few weeks ago I have bought the green which I also have new in the PSQ, both in ESV, which are my final bible buys forever. I have 20 premiums Cambridge, Allen and Schuyler and I am comlpletely satiated!
I've wondered that same thing, Grant... not quite sure how that would impact the PSQ. I imagine it would be slightly smaller as well, but perhaps they can work around that and keep it at 8.5pt.
@@timwildsmith I cannot imagine anyone ever wanting the PSQ to change format.
It's perfect!
@@timwildsmith If the keep it at 8.5pt, they would probably not be able to keep the pagination? I suppose that's not a big thing, but it was a nice feature, and made things easier for them, just having to scale the size of the text...
Hi tim, can you make a R L allan one thx
Thanks for the video! Holler if ya need someone to store those for you. ;)
😉
I love your videos. I want to buy all of the Bibles but you helped me figure out which ones were good for me. I have 2 Schuyler and 1 Alan and I love them. They are so amazing and a joy to read. I have one question. I know you don’t do this but you might help me understand. Why do some people on UA-cam scribble all over the pages of the Bible. Some cover the entire page. They are illegible. Please answer my question. Maybe I’m wrong. Maybe I’m ignorant. Maybe that’s a new fad. I’m old and having a hard time trying to keep up with new ways of doing things
But Gods word to me is sacred and it doesn’t make sense to me
I'm glad I can help, Berta... There's a whole new world of Bible journaling and art... maybe that's what you've seen is people who like to draw and take notes in their bibles in pretty ways.
Why is the Stridon the only edition in which there are translator notes, while all the others only have references? This is the one thing I don't like about Schuyler Bibles. Enjoyed your review...thanks...!
I love the text blook of the older edition by Trinarian Bible Society. You mentioned that Schuyler doesn't make that one any more. Any suggestions for a premium bible with that type of text block?
Hmmm… there’s nothing quite like it that I can think of. TBS still makes these, but I don’t think it’s exactly the same.
Hello Tim , I was wondering if you could recommend a company that would make me a calf skin amplified version?
Brother Tim wildsmith my name is caleb i am an indaian i need Schuyler caxton bible green colour how can i get please could you send me any link to bye
NASB in large print with index?
Hi Tim..do you have a video like this on RL Allan bibles?
Do you think the PSQ will come in a KJV translation at some point? Thanks for these great reviews!
They make a Personal Size Canterbury... I think that's the closest you'll get.
Hey Tim, I just bought my first NIV Schuyler Quentel and wondering is it normal for there to be bold dark print in some areas and light print in others?
Do you think they will make a single column KJV? I have the Canterbury but would love a single column but not the traveris.
Is there a breakin process you're supposed to do on a new schuyler bible ?
Tim - I just ordered the Tuscany calfskin PSQ and thought it was a saddle color leather because that’s what it looks like at evangelicalbibles. But it definitely looks yellow in your video.
Is it yellow??
I wouldn’t use “yellow” to describe it.
I hope they come out with a center column reference, personal sized ESV. 9pt type. This is my favorite layout, but there isn't a line matched edition out there.
Don't hold your breath!
@@timwildsmith I'm not. I've never seen a Schuyler Bible in person, and will probably never see one. I might save up for an Esv Psq in the new aniline leather that will be coming. If not, I'll stuck with my Esv large print compact. It works OK. Too much ghosting though.
@@Creationhorse I was waiting about a year to actually find a Schuyler in person, gave up, good luck! I recently bought a couple and they're flawless AFAIK, worth climbing the escalating commitment ladder though .....
NLT is hard to source anything nice so yes I did "need" a couple for me and my pastor that leans NLT, but I wouldn't buy more Schuyler without specialized usage needs. I prefer ESV so I'll likely get an ESV or two, likely a zippered PSQ because who else makes premium with zippers for EDC?
@@Creationhorse the hardest thing about justifying full premium ESV is the usual quality to cost disparity of Crossway products. They're well bound and less ghosty than the competition, IMO better formatting ... and ESV just reads good. I'll likely try some buffalo bound this year.
what do you think about 28GSM VS The older 36 Schuylers which one was better?
Tim, do you think there is ever, any chance Schuyler will put out a NRSV version of the PSQ? That would be perfect for me.
I think they'd do the full size Q first... so I wouldn't hold your breath!
I’d pay more for 36 gsm NKJV from Schuyler.I think that’s where Allan beats them. The paper is so much nicer.
♥️♥️♥️
Nice overview. That was fun. So a question is, my questions is... should I write in...highlight in.. my ESV Full App Tuscany Calfskin bible when it comes in? Is anyone out there writing in their Schuyler bible? For me, I'm actually thinking about highlighting in mine. LMK what is ok and what is forbidden to do, in regards to note taking, studying, etc. Thanks!
If you love, I say go for it!
Hi, I would like to ask you some information about these wonderful Bibles. Are they available in Italian or are they only in English? Thank you
Just English
Hey Tim, do you like a Schuyler PSQ or the compact Humble Lamb HIStory NASB 2020 bibles best?
I have not seen the NASB History in person yet, but I’m sure it’ll be great. The PSQ is an all-time favorite.
The problem with Schuyler is and will be the paper, it's not competitive in the premium market anymore, Thomas Nelson premier collection and RL Allan both offer nicer bibles with better paper. As much as I want to love Schuyler I just can't with 28gsm paper.
I have to agree with you. I got a KJV Treveris, which I thought I'd love, and it would be the best one I owned. I so wanted it to be. But sadly not. I won't buy another with 28gsm paper
At least I know now that I’m not the only one that thinks this way. When you ask Schuyler over the phone about it they couldn’t sound more pleased with the paper and make it sound like everybody prefers it over the 36 GSM. I honestly don’t know what they’re thinking. I went ahead and bought a couple of the last NIVs with the 36 GSM paper but I will not be buying anymore until they go back to it.
Didn’t happen to make an Everything…RL Allan per chance? I’ve owned many premium Bibles from Cambridge to Schuyler and Crossway (one Lifeway) but traversing the Allan landscape has me befuddled with the acronyms and numbers?!
Not yet!
how much see through with highlights and underlines with pen like pigma micron with 28 GSM?
How is that red goat skin with blue art gilt in person?
Do you happen to know if they will have available the Stridon in NASB 95? Thank you
That’s not announced as of now.
