I happen to be able to read portuguese, although i am as non schooled lousy translator .
Eventually i have emailed the post to the Brazilian guy who passed me the book link, himself a credited cuttler, and he said the resume/translation was very good .
If you feel some passages in the book are susceptible to be worthy the translation, try me.
In my resume i foccused more on the typology and some of the vast nomenclature, skipping over the folkloric and social part, proverbs and allegories related to knives and their use, the last two being more idiomatic and producing a more hibrid translation.
