Captain Chris Stanaback Knife Enthusiast Registered: 09/14/05 Posts: 12684 Loc: Central Florida	AG & Goldie bought, now and then, from me. I had my hand on AG when we all stood and posed for the iconic "Blade Show Dealer Photo". A.G. Russell did a lot...a "LOT" for the knife business. To AG, I bid you "Fair Winds" Respectfully submitted, Captain Chris Stanaback _________________________ Capt.Chris Stanaback RKCC/RKCA Founder RKS #016 NRA Lifetime Member CAPTSTANABACK@aol.com WEBSITE: www.captstanaback.com

W Polidori Knife Enthusiast Registered: 02/09/16 Posts: 5791 Loc: Central New York	I recall 2 years ago at Blade. Spent some time speaking with AG in the BMK booth. I believe his brother was with him. Glad I had the opportunity to speak with him. Along with his dealer Randall, I have one of his club knives, a folder from years ago. In a recent post I mentioned I was taking my AG Randall in the field this year. Hope I get the chance to use it as tribute to his legacy.

I have had the Blessed opportunities to sit and speak with AG and Goldie many times and had a great one on one with AG this past Blade show for about half an hour...Great, Great man with untold wisdom and knowledge...he will be missed so much... Our condolences to Goldie and family, but congrats to AG on reaching Jesus' side! He'll be whispering in our Savior's ear for Blessings on our industry I am sure!! _________________________ ---DW--- Scott RKS #014 HE IS RISEN!, HE IS RISEN INDEED!

TAH Knife Enthusiast Registered: 10/26/05 Posts: 2382 Loc: USA	Very sad news indeed. In the 80s and 90s, way before the internet, I remember how exciting it was to receive the latest Cutting Edge catalog with the small black and white photos of each knife "Available For Immediate Delivery". The good old days. RIP, Mr. Russell and condolences to the family. _________________________ Tom RKS #4233

pappy19 Knife Enthusiast Registered: 10/31/07 Posts: 7376 Loc: Garden Valley, Idaho	I bought many knives from him starting in the early 1980's. A definite giant in the knife world and will be truly missed.

BladesNBarrels Knife Enthusiast Registered: 09/19/05 Posts: 1363 Loc: East Tincup General Store,Colo...	AG and Goldie are icons of the knife world. AG encouraged and supported many of the new and long-time knife makers. A true gentleman and I will miss his wise advice and perspective. Condolences to his family, the fine people at the store, and to the knife community that respected him. _________________________ David Loomis RKS# 724 RKCC# CM-061 Molon Labe
