It's always unnerving when we lose someone that was a part of our daily lives. Reminds us how precious life is.

My most sincere condolences to Brian's family.

I am just seeing this. My wife's brother just passed a few weeks ago, so I haven't been on in a while. This is just terrible news. There are many members that make amazing contributions to the page, but Iman was one of the special ones. He always posted fantastic knives, and I always looked forward to his super photography skills. I just can't believe it. I am very saddened. RIP, Brian.

My condolences to his friends and family. I was proud to have known him, even if it was just on the forum.

Thank you Tom. We lost two good ones. I probably shouldn't have put it in my comment. I don't want to take away from what a loss Iman is to everyone. I was just stating why I haven't been on and missed the sad news.

Losing Iman. So sad. His eye and photographic skills for great knives were unmatched. He was always complimentary of my acquisitions, and I of his. Q, I wonder if we could get his son Donovan to join the forum? After all he will likely inherit his father's collection. Would be cool to see the legacy continue.

I somehow didn't see this until today. Very sorry to hear Iman has passed. He had great knives that he liked to show off with fine photography. I hope his family and friends are able to remember all the good times with him. Sorry Q that you lost your friend.
