Damn! I went out of my way to shake his hand at blade this year. Glad I did. R.I.P.

 

[tltt]

End of an era. He had a good long run, and left a large legacy.

He always seemed like a truly good man, the knife world is much better for having had his influence. My thoughts and prayers are with Goldie.

A true Giant in the industry that I can personally attest set the standards for customer service.

An innovator, designer, coach, and father to so many makers...

What a huge loss not only to the industry but to all his friends and family. RIP, sir.

His was one of the first names I learned when getting in to the hobby. I even spoke to him by phone once. He will be missed.

A great loss. My condolences.
I often thought... imagine his knife collection!
I dearly hope the company can continue.

Gonna carry my K87 Onehand Knife in his memory. Bought from him in the late 80s at a show back east.

RIP AG and my condolences and sincerest sympathies Goldie.

There are some people who leave a hole in the world when they depart; he is one of those.
