Fellow Collectors,
Our old friend Ralph K. passed away on October 31st, 2014. He was a good solid man and a champion of the hobby. We've lost a lot of fine men this past year. May they all rest in peace ...

I, too, am saddened by this loss to our hobby.
He had the most amazing collection of etched bayonets and daggers.
He and I would share our pictures.
