A belated thank you for finding a picture of him that doesn’t show him in profile, or from the back. He had a great tough presence. He reminds me a lot of Sam Elliott. I wish he would have made some films that were more, “vanilla”.

Ken West from SF(formerly Albany) here. Long time no see, Sir. I don’t know if you will get this but if you do, it would be great to say hello. You are a tough one to track down. I found that you opened a shop in Germany but I believe it has since closed. The hunt continues…
Dear Sir,
When you lived near Albany I visited you for a few day and you made me an amazing pair of chaps. I would love to visit you again, if possible. Do you still make chaps?

I met Ken years ago when I was just coming out and I had visited his leather shop in Albany NY. He made a huge impression on me with his strength and passion and just being an all around amazing man. To this day I think of him and how he showed me to be who I was and to follow my dreams and not give a F what the rest of the world thinks. I like to think of him as my first mentor lol When I was in town I would visit his store just to say hello. Was by far one of the best huggers I’ve ever known!
It’s a shame to hear of his passing. He was one of a kind and a truly wonderful guy. Rest In Peace my friend! Don’t rough up the angels too much!
some info that was posted online about his shop in Albany NY:
“If you’re looking for leather in upstate New York, look up Savage Gifts & Leather. The owner’s name is Ken Savage and the shop is at 88 Central Ave., Albany NY 12210. His phone number is (518) 434-2324. He will custom make any leather apparel/gear you can dream up and he’s helped me design some custom harnesses.

Ken Savage/Bergquist was also Mr. Southeast Drummer 1984 (believe the contest was held in Atlanta) and was a judge for Mr. Mid-Atlantic Leather 2014. If you look through 1980’s copies of Drummer Magazine, in addition to photo spreads, Ken Savage/Bergquist is also photographed for numerous advertisements.
oh, I’ve looked!
*correction: Mr. Southeast Drummer 1984 was actually held at Tacky’s Bar in Fort Lauderdale
