Oh no, this is horrible. He was such a passionate knife guy, and though I didn't really know him, he seemed like a really nice man.

So sorry to hear of his passing. I will say a prayer for his family.

I am sorry to hear that. I will add the Paolantonio family to my prayer list.
As others have stated Bob had a passion for knives and was always quick to share his knowledge here on AAPK.
He will be missed!

This is terrible news, Bobby was a good guy!
