My favorite story about Ethan was a time when he was walking around a show with a broken knife in his hand. All that he had of the knife was the handle and maybe an inch of what was a much longer blade. The maker had made lots of claims about the quality of his knives and threatened to sue anyone who said anything bad about the quality. I asked Ethan about it and he would not say a word, but did let me look at the handle. The blade had snapped clean, but try as I could Ethan would not say a word about the knife.
It was absolutely perfect!!
