KJV Clarion Reference Bible, Black Edge-lined Goatskin Leather, KJ486:XE Black Goatskin Leather Review: My first elegantly-bound Bible - It started when my snap-cover bonded leather bible started to fall apart around the edges, while at the same time my vision was challenged by the tiny print. And my study bibles were so BIG for carrying around. Ditto a large-print one I inherited after my father died. And the in-between sizes? After using Bibles until the spines sagged horribly, or covers and pages just plain fell apart, I remembered the beautiful and supple goatskin, calfskin and sheepskin bibles at a shop I worked at years ago, but as a student and retail employee, high-end bibles were neither in my budget nor high on my priority list. Still, I remembered how beautiful they felt in my hands, and how they smelled, and how they were meant to last for a lifetime (or more) of regular use without breaking down. Did they still make them? Most bible/book stores I had been in mainly sold bibles in paperback, hardback or bonded leather (not so durable, not flexible, not beautiful). With so many versions to choose from, I always went with less-expensive bindings so I could have different versions and study features. Times have changed....for study, I can get any version I want online. And as I simplify my life, I realize that having just one Bible in paper form was all I really needed. My question was - Is there a Bible with a beautiful binding I could treat myself to? So I went down the rabbit hole to re-acquaint myself with the world of Bibles with fine bindings. Thanks to bloggers with a passion for this topic, I was introduced to so many options and factors to consider....and I was introduced to the Cambridge Clarion, which fulfilled my wish list: Buttery soft goatskin cover from an old and reputable bookbinding company The whole bible flexes, and lays flat when open Matte leather with a subtle, beautiful texture, neither shiny nor heavy Neutral Color Unfussy: NO printing on front or back, NO fussy filigree imprinting around the inside edges of the cover Single column "Readers' Style" pages and little in the way of "helps" to keep the size manageable Small enough and light enough to fit easily into my hand Big enough to read easily Available in KJV: for long-term investment/use, the version I prefer for the beauty of the language and the integrity of the Textus Receptus, from which it was translated The Cambridge Clarion was the winner, but cost $245 retail, and the retail shop didn't have the version I wanted on their list. Ouch. I could go through any number of paperback bibles in my lifetime for that price, right? But it was near the holidays and I decided to treat myself to a used one at desertcart for $122. It came in a spanking new box, showed almost no sign of being used, the cover is handsome and has that awesome leather smell, on top of all its other features. And it looks really pretty with the white leather Snugg cover on my iPad (another desertcart bargain!), where I can access other bible versions and all sorts of study helps. The outside of the Bible is truly the least important part of it. But I am really, really enjoying it. Very nice purchase. If you know someone who loves God's word and loves to study and wants a beautiful and long-lasting hard copy in a version that they really enjoy using, it would be an awesome gift to invite them into the world of fine Bible binding and (once they find the one that meets their own wishes and understand the value of the binding) to gift them with the Bible of their choice. I imagine that a lot of the used ones on desertcart were gifts that were not quite to the receivers' taste...and a Bible is a very personal thing. Review: The Perfect Bible to Last a Lifetime - I had purchased a KJV Cameo with Apocrypha and I liked it but the print quality from page to page was pretty bad and I didn't like the words of Christ in red letter. Albeit it is the best red letter I've seen in a Bible, but it was still very distracting and hard on my eyes. So, I reluctantly returned it and purchased this instead. I'm very glad I did. The goatskin and edged-lined as well as the higher quality paper is something I immediately noticed between the two. In addition, the text of the Clarion is crystal clear on every single page and is extremely easy to read. This Bible will last you a lifetime and I love the single column and having all the text in black instead of red for Christ's words. It makes it a pleasure to read. I don't find that the text goes into the gutter at all to a point that you can't read it. It is perfect. If you're having any doubts, I can assure you, you will not regret your purchase. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #354,197 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #4,386 in Christian Bibles (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (70) | | Dimensions | 8 x 6 x 1.7 inches | | Edition | Lea | | ISBN-10 | 0521182921 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0521182928 | | Item Weight | 1.9 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 2000 pages | | Publication date | July 28, 2011 | | Publisher | Cambridge University Press | ## Images ![KJV Clarion Reference Bible, Black Edge-lined Goatskin Leather, KJ486:XE Black Goatskin Leather - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61U+Ef7HUxL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My first elegantly-bound Bible *by L***A on April 13, 2016* It started when my snap-cover bonded leather bible started to fall apart around the edges, while at the same time my vision was challenged by the tiny print.

If you're having any doubts, I can assure you, you will not regret your purchase. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Thank you, Jesus...... *by G***N on February 18, 2014* Finally, a Bible bound in beautiful black goatskin with script in paragraph groupings. The goatskin is supple, soft, with somewhat finely textured grain, easily held in the hand, and, yet, the font is printed dark and large enough for even those with diopter 4.0 eyesight. This Bible is a joy to behold, a pleasure to hold, and even more enjoyable to read God's Word in paragraph groupings. If you're in doubt, just go for it, and you'll understand what I mean. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/6949851-kjv-clarion-reference-bible-black-edge-lined-goatskin-leather-kj486](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/6949851-kjv-clarion-reference-bible-black-edge-lined-goatskin-leather-kj486) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
