That's a shame but one could be so lucky has to have made an impact and I think it's safe to say, he did.
Re: A.G. Russell passes
Holy cow! I just interviewed him a couple months back. What a legend.

As a child I would spends hours looking at the pictures in my dad's A.G. Russell catelog every quarter, dreaming about the day I would own one and torn over which one would be the first.
I can't believe they still produce the Hunter's Scalpel. I owned one 30 years and have no idea what ever happened to it.

Thinking of his family and friends during this difficult time.
Make time for the important things in life, and learn to enjoy the little things more.

Re: A.G. Russell passes
I always look forward to flipping through the catalog when it arrives every month or so. I pulled the trigger on a $50 pair of nail clippers based upon Sals recommendation. The build quality is so good im guessing they will last for the rest of my life.

Sad news indeed, but at least God has his own custom knife craftsman and good man.
