For what it's worth, I've talked to Thomas on the phone a few times and his voice didn't "match up" to the photos I've seen of him. I guess I was expecting his voice to be different; I can't explain it. So anyway, a nice voice doesn't always equal a nice face, and vice versa

Soooo, what is it exactly are you trying to say about GG?

His voice was definitely more "laid-back" than his picture, if you know what I mean. Nothing derogatory intended. I'd imagine he sounds different after a few shots of liquor :thumbup:

T-Man is a good fella. Passionate about his company and customers, loyal and generous to a fault, and he doesnt take any BS.

I'd split a bottle of my finest with him any day...but he better drink his half

Ever since Thomas and Kershaw showed up around here, I've seen a big difference in their offerings and it's all been for the better. I've always thought Kershaw put out nice knives since I was made aware of them by a gift of a Scallion in '01 but thought they lagged behind Spyderco and Benchmade until they started posting here. In my opinion, the tables have been turned now. I look at the new offerings from Benchmade and Spyderco and find a hard time getting excited about any of them; I look at Kershaws offerings and keep saying 'Wow'. Exotic steels, composite blades, affordable 'sprint runs' and a feeling that the company really cares about what it's consumers want and is just as excited about making the products as we are about buying them.

Don't forget about the black belt--that really sets him apart!

Ever since I found this sub-forum, I've felt right at home. Much I have learned, and more still to learn.

+1 And it helps that he's always here on this forum to help us too!

So, I take it I can post a photo of you, now that you've already posted one? It's a shot of you and Tim Galyean.

I can't PM, and it looks like I can't send you E-mails either. Any other way to get it to you, other than posting a visitor message with the link?

Description... Thomas is wearing an OD color button-up shirt with the sleeves down and buttoned. He has a black neck lanyard with an ID of some sort hanging off it. Black pants. Tim is wearing a white button-up shirt with some light blue vertical stripes; the sleeves are rolled up to his elbows. He also has sunglasses on his head. Looks like he's wearing a dark-colored necktie.

EDIT: E-mail replied to.
