Dale Edmonds passed away today at age 81. He refinished Damascus barrels for many years. He left behind friends like Mikeej99 from this forum and myself, but no heirs. Maybe a good way to remember him might be to post some pictures of barrels he refinished and memories of him.

Dale was the nicest guy. He refinished several sets of Damascus barrels for me before he retired from the business. It was always interesting to talk with him.
Rest In Peace Dale

Dale was one of the nicest guys, fun to talk to and most helpful to me when I was learning to refinish Damascus barrels. May he rest in peace.

Very Sad day. Many of the great ones have passed on. Dale did a spectacular job on a set of 8 gauge barrels for me. He will be greatly missed.
