Bill - I was just wondering if his family would be continuing production of some of his designs. I didn't know about his brother's honors, wish I had investigated when I saw you at Blade. I met Bob when he first got to 7th Gp. He was that rare combination of competent, respected, and likeable without losing the capacity for mischief. Unfortunately we went different directions a few years later and I'd only seen him a few times in the last 5-6 years. I was aware of his growing reputation as a knifemaker and several mutual friends/acquaintances had recommended I check his work out. Sadly, that is now no longer possible. One more good man lost. As the list grows I spend more time praying the end result will be worth the sacrifice. Time to get a couple of W-M's books. Another family stands bereft and despite some faux pas the Warrior Foundation does do good things. My .02 Peregrino
