I got this message recently from Tim Leatherman, and I wanted to share it with everyone:
Dear Friends at Multitool.org-
Congratulations on your second anniversary. I can remember back to our second year here at Leatherman and it was very busy; so I’m sure you have your hands full.
Please extend a big thanks to all your contributors. All the pages of great discussion and insight are excellent. It’s so nice to read comments from people who are as passionate about the design and functionality of multi-tools as we are.
Have a great second year and here’s to many, many more for multitools and the folks who review them and hold us all to a higher standard.
Regards,
Tim

:o
Awesome!

:o :o :o
That is really awesome! I must be Tim Leatherman's favorite! :D
-
we could always ask him to post a thread; "Who's your favorite Multitool member?!"
nice to hear from you boss Tim, I hope we at least make you laugh :P
-
:o
Awesome +3!
Thanks for sharing that with us Def, it's nice to see comments from someone held in such high regard.
-
Thats pretty cool to think someone up so high in the MT world recognizes this place and thinks highly of it :o
Of course he too was once a common man with but a dream :P :D
-
You might be right LM123 , Tim could retire early if we all bought 4 Surge's :P . That is great Def thanks for sharing Def :cheers:
-
Congrats Def & Co., and thanks for the kind wishes Tim.
Keep up the good work in Portland! :salute:
-
:o :o :o
That is really awesome! I must be Tim Leatherman's favorite! :D
Don't kid yourself... I'm his favorite!
-
Tim saw " The SURGE King!!!" and he was like hmm he's my favorite!

That was until he saw the MT.O video with me in it and found out I EDC a SURGE!!! Now I'm his favorite!
-
wonder if Tim lurks on here under an assumed profile. I would just to keep tabs and take notes.

Hmm... maybe you're Tim!!!

I could be.....ya never know :pok:

Congratulations Def. That really cool.

While I can't divulge any of the identities I know, I would like to point out that all the major manufacturers, with one notable exception, have people reading this forum and checking out the reviews and Multitool Encyclopedia. Taking advantage of independent and honest information like this is what puts companies like that at the top of the game. Still, it was fantastic to hear from The Man himself! Apparently we made a bit of an impression on him at the SHOT Show! :D

Leatherman tools are great, but the man himself is truly a legend. I find it very impressive that Tim can take time out of his busy schedule to wish us well. :multi:
-
Ok, now I'm convinced that Leatherman123 is on LM's payroll! He is way too enthusiastic about the surge (e.g. THE SURGE!!!!!!!!) Plus he just uses way too many exclamation marks!
Also, what about Spoonrobot? That guy's reviews are just a bit too professional! Plus how does a guy just happen to know what Diamond Layer Coating is??
Reveal yourselves!! Let's see some income tax returns!!
:)
-
OK, I admit it- Tim Leatherman hired me to say good things about the SURGE!! ::) :D
-
Kick ass. SSSSSSSSSUUUUUUUUUUUUUUURRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Cost Leatherman 10$ for me too write this.
-
Wow, this is excellent. Congrats, team at MT.org. BTW, was there a multitool shaped cake at the celebrations?
-
He must really hate me :P
Well done def , that really is some recognition :D
I really would like to meet Tim Leatherman .

That really is a great message. :)
-
Def,
Please extend our thanks to Tim Leatherman.
That was very kind of him :salute:
-
Nice touch that. Hey Def - you're famous!
-
That' s great of him to take the time to send the note. It says a lot about him and his company.

Cake ??? Why didn't someone tell me that there was cake >:( I love cake too :P :D :D :D

THE CAKE IS A LIE!
*flees*

But the cake is so moist and delicious.

If he sends me a Surge to go up against my Swisstool he might become my favorite

The SURGE would be triumphant! :D
-
lol, yes may we run through the streets of Portland yelling SSSUUUUURRRRGGGEEE!!!!!!!
In honesty the Surge is an awesome tool, and quite literally the biggest of them all. You sure your not getting paid by Tim to say such good things about it? Not like your lying to anything, but free endorsment don't hurt 'em at all.

Portal is a game released by Valve. The evil mad computer controlling the facility you are trying to escape from mentions a party where there will be cake served, but there is a hidden area where a previous test subject trying to escape had scrawled "THE CAKE IS A LIE!!!" repeatedly on a wall. It quickly became an internet meme.
-
The SURGE would be triumphant! :D
If he wants to send me one I would give it a fair shot,but with the cost for me to go out and pick one up I don't see it happening.I do ok as a Truck Driver,but with the cost of fuel my wife and I have been cutting our expenses any where I can.

Oh, okay thanks for splainin Lucy :salute: (another reference but from TV) ;) :D
-
Wow very cool. I love it when higher ups are down to earth guys just like you and me.

Today's Dirty Dozen thread necro is this one- a message that Tim Leatherman sent us for our second anniversary, ten years ago.
What cooler thread could there be than a message from Tim Leatherman and a portal reference? Toss in a Punishment Chicken or two and we have ourselves a party!

It absolutely is!
One of the drawbacks to bringing these threads back is that it reminds us of how many friends aren't here anymore. I guess it's time to start a new thread welcoming back missing members, and see who responds. :D
