Received the Canterbury Black Goatskin red letter KJB today. I ordered it in May and it was worth the wait. WoW! Also have the Canterbury Blue Goatskin that I purchased in 2018 and I much prefer this one. As one review has already said the lighter paper is not a downgrade the quality is great and the lightness and the use in the pulpit will be fine.
But the greatest part that I absolutely love is the readability. The text and size makes for easy reading, but especially: “NO CLUTTER.” Appreciate that there is no ‘helps’ in breaking down the words with pronouncing the words. To me those things are an hindrance to a clean text which I prefer; this Bible is so easy on the eyes as I just keep on reading and reading.
Thank You all again at Evangelical Bible for your excellent help and service. I wont be gone long.

I received my Schuyler Canterbury KJV, Black Goatskin Bible – Red Letter for my birthday this year. It was the perfect gift. This is my first “premium” Bible. I will be purchasing one for my wife soon. I kind of want to buy another one for myself….I highly recommend this Bible!

I have the first printing Canterbury and this one as well in the full yapp and the regular yapp. I’ll keep this review for the red letter, black goatskin leather, regular yapp. Wow is the word that comes to mind! From the feel and smell of the goatskin leather, to the craftsmanship, to the premium materials – this Bible is a must-have. The changes from the first printing Canterbury to this one are very welcomed. They corrected some typos, took out the self-pronouncing marks, and added red letter all the way through Revelation. The red letter is very consistent and a dark brick red – just the way I like it. The other change is the paper weight went from 36 gsm to 28 gsm. It has slight more see through than the 36 gsm, but the paper from France is very opaque with the titanium in it making it very nice. Also the paper is whiter making the black and red ink seem darker and easier to read. The trade off is well worth it, namely the Bible is now thinner and not as heavy – making it more manageable! The only thing I would like to see is the concordance to have a larger font. The Bible is stunning and will last the rest of your life and you will be able to pass it down as a legacy. It is so nice though, you will want to get a backup copy just to have two! It’s a beautiful Bible!
