Kit was one of those guys that while he was a legend to many , he always remained grounded and stayed Kit.
Never forget our many phone calls , me constantly harassing him for years to build me a slipjoint , which he did....70% of the way , then in typical Kit style , put it in a box , sent it to me and told me not to screw it up.
He was a knifemaker , but he was also one heck of a person , and he was always quick to praise others. He was always there to answer any questions , or to tell you to buck up and straighten up. With Kit , you got what you got....something I always respected.
A mans man....a gentle giant , and I am a better person for having him as a friend.
Today he is around the campfire with many of the greats that have passed before him. I am not going to mourn his passing, instead I will celebrate his life and remember the times I had with him.
