Thomas appreciation thread

I am very new to knives and Kershaw as well. His passion and the knives Kershaw produces in the U.S. Both are qualities that are beyond reproach. Nice job Thomas !!! Do we get this day off next year??
 
I havent been posting much. But saw this thread. Had to put in my two cents worth !

I've had dealings with the gentleman in the past. And I can attest that Thomas is one of the good guys !

Kershaw is lucky to have him. And we'e lucky to have him here on the boards !!!

Thanks Thomas !!!!
 
I lost interest in Kershaw somewhere in the 80s. Knives were well made, but the steel didn't work so well. Didn't give them another look until about 5-6 years ago.

They had revamped everything, and gone on with Ken Onion and others, and then with better steels. I bought a couple that I really liked design wise, and I was back on board with Kershaw. I had a small problem with one of the knives (which I decided to fix myself - it wasn't anything big) and was in touch with Thomas. What a guy.

His response was "just tell me what you want to do". After that, and then coming here and seeing his hands on responses as well as making sure that the Kershaw reputation remains bulletproof, he absolutely rid me of any doubts about Kershaw. Honestly, when he described his daily regimen as well as litany of responsibilities, I have no idea how he answers anybody's email, or has time to participate here.

Now several Kershaws later, that is indeed mostly due to me knowing that Kershaw has someone like Thomas in the company. It is obvious all he does is more than just a job for him.

Good on 'ya Thomas. Keep it up (when you have a chance!)

Gotta throw props to GG. Thomas isn't a rep for Kershaw...he is a Champion. Every company could be so lucky!!

Thank you for all you do Thomas. Communally, personally, and for your organization.

Give away? ;)
 
As always, I'm a day late and a dollar short (which is gonna be really tough when that 0777 comes out). Thomas is a class act, he has never hesitated to answer even the most simple question, which I truly appreciate. Thanks much Thomas for everything!
 
His generosity is legendary, esp. when something very, very nice shows up from out of the blue. I know I've benefited several times as have many others here on BF.

Thank you Thomas for your generosity and putting up with us.

BFTW: I'll take #57 or #68.

Thomas is a tremendous asset for Kai USA, this forum, and the knife industry in general!

He's also been a great friend to many of us, and I am glad that Jenn and I finally got to meet him in person at Blade this year.

From a land far far away...Thanks for the cool words. Much appreciated. I couldn't do what I do, if it wasn't for our fantastic base of valued customers.

Thank you all very much.
 
Said it before but I will gladly say it again. Thomas ROCKS! He's helped me solve more issues and answered more questions than I can count. Can't wait to come to the annual knife sale!
