If anyone has some good pictures of Adrian how about posting them. Would hate to see people just remember him as a lemon head.

I gotta be honest the name didn't really connect so I looked him up in the members area & boom new him from the avatar. I was about to go to bed but screw it I will raise a toast instead.

Now every time I forge a new blade I think how much Adrian would like it.

Now every time I forge a new blade I think how much Adrian would like it. He and I had been chatting about Khyber knives since before the one you made. Every time I found one cheap I'd send it to him, don't think he ever got one. I had forgotten about this (it had been a while since our last exchange) until recently when I saw a nice one on eBay and caught myself running to my PMs trying to remember who I'd been sending them to excited to share... That excitement soured very quickly.

I'm so sorry to learn of Adrian's passing. He was a wonderful person - an upstanding character who really went out of his way to make me a little happier. The forums, the internet, and the world are diminished for his loss.

I really miss this guy. He was a great mod, and more importantly, a great friend. I was devastated when I learned he died. I really believed he would pull through

I haven't been here in years; but I'm saddened to see this. I have fond memories of talking knives with Adrian; and remember him becoming a moderator. I'm sure he's been, and will continue to be, missed

It speaks to the quality of who Adrian was as a person, that every time I see an older post by him, and after writing most of a reply...I have to delete it with pain in my heart. I never met him in person, but he was such an integral part of this community. He came to the end we are all destined for, but that truth doesn't make the reality any easier. I don't always see eye-to-eye with the members of this particular Internet forum, but we all...every one of us...has a common adoration for swords, and sword culture (if nothing else). We ARE a community, and that has genuine meaning. I don't expect to be liked by everyone, and such a notion is just unrealistic on its face, but I KNOW we are bigger than the sum of our parts. I want to thank all of you for allowing me to be part of this...thing. We might be a dysfunctional family, but at its root...we are family. Cheers, Adrian. We miss you.

His posts were absolute joy mixed with an easy going logic. He was a lovable dude. I used to message and chat with him all the time. Rest in piece you glorious lemon man, Adrian Jordan

My heart and prayers go out for Adrian Jordan and his family. I know the struggle he had as I am in that struggle and have been for two years. I never got to know him. Yet I know he will be missed.
