I was informed yesterday of @bruce moulds passing by @CBH.
I was glad i was sitting down at the time.
Even tho I never met Bruce personally I hand many a long conversation with him. He was a very knowledgeable bloke and we spent many a time stirring the crap out of each other both in the forum and in person all in good Australian fun and humor. Bruce was a straight shooter and you always knew where you stood with him.
He had strong opinions on what worked and didn't work for him and had no problems telling others. He passed on a great deal of knowledge on this forum and others.
One subject Bruce was very strong on was the quality of @Von Gruff Gary's knives. He thought if you only owned one knife it has to be a Von Gruff as they work as promised. Every time we spoke his first question was not how are you Bob, it was have you ordered your von Gruff yet. He liked them that much.
Even tho I didn't meet Bruce personally I regarded him as a good friend. My only regret is that Bruce, Chris and myself never got to do the hunting trip we wanted to do together to compare calibers and sit around the campfire swapping stories
My thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends at this time.
RIP old mate I will miss you
