Bad year for gripmakers

[diecidecimi]

I don't know if this is the correct section to post it: if not, please shift it-

After Keith Brown, Herrett's and Kim Ahrend ceased their grips/stocks production this year, another gripmaker has gone, august 12: Tedd Abramovich , the owner of BluMagnum grips, who herited the knowledge and the craftsmanship of Deacon Deason (Bear Hug grips) and the style/design of Skeeter Skelton .
RIP

Herrett's did not cease operations.

I just received two pair of Herrett's Troopers last month.

That's to bad. Stocks will harder to get as the pool of grip makers slowly dwindle. Luckily we have some great ones coming up.
Herrett's is indeed still in business.
I was thinking of selling my Bear Hug stocks, maybe I should keep them. Have had them a long time. I don't have a clue what they are worth. More now maybe.

I know Keith Brown has not been accepting new orders for some time, but has he actually ceased production?

Yeah thank goodness Herrets pulled it out of the fire at the last minute! I actually sprung for a wood upgrade since in June I was sure it was the last chance I would have to own a pair.

It's a shame about the rest.
