Buster Warenski

Julie, you have my deepest condolences. I am proud to have known Buster and I treasure the work I have of you both. This will be a lesser place.

Mr. Warenski is one of the main reasons I started the art of knife making. His work will live forever and he will be greatly missed.

Buster was a great artist and a superb craftsman -- and he will continue to inspire anyone who has ever held a piece of steel and dreamed of what it could become.

I was terribly upset to hear of Buster 's death.My wife Chantal and I are writing to send you and your family our warmest love and deepest sympathy in your tragic loss.
Buster was known very well in France and his death is a big lost for the art knives.

I wasn't at all familiar with Mr. Warenski's work--I'd seen one of his knives, that's all. When I saw your notice, I went looking for other examples. All I can say is that I'm sorry I did not know his work well while he was alive, because then I could have congratulated him in person. The arts, as well as the knife community, has lost an exceptionally fine creator.

MY condolences to the family of such a man with a talent i would like to aspire to and can only imagine .

Julie,
Our hearts ache for you and we feel a hollow emptiness as we think of your great loss and ours. Buster was a rare gentle man. His talent is not equalled. He is the "good guy" who wore a black hat! His leadership in the early days of the Guild was so appreciated. May knowing how much he was loved and appreciated by others ease some of the pain you and family feel at this time.
It was with deep regret, we learned of Buster's passing at the Huntin'Expo in Salt Lake on...

Dear Julie, Our thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family at this most difficult time. The knife collecting community has lost a great hero.

My most sincere condolences go out to your family, and I regret even more now that I never had the opportunity to meet Buster during his productive life. His work stands in a class of its own. He will remain in my prayers.
