Mr. Wayne Goddard passes

[Sal Glesser]

I regret to inform you that Mr. Wayne Goddard has passed away. Wayne has been struggling for the past several years and is now gone. He has held a special place in Spyderco's heart for many years. He was a knife-maker, a blade-smith, Spyderco collaborator, writer and personal friend. He will be missed by many. RIP Wayne.

He will absolutely be missed. I loved his $50 knife shop book.

That’s very sad news. His collab with Spyderco was one of my first Spydercos and the very first knife I had with Micarta.

Sad indeed, another innovator the knife world has lost is finally at rest. He will be missed.

Rest in Peace. This guy was a legend and I am honoured to have owned a piece of him through my Spyderco Goddard.

I hope he’s making knives for angels now.
