Well-known knifemaker dies in motorcycle crash

Not sure if any of you know who he is, but he made the Gerber popular after redesigning it some 30 years ago. He has lent his expertise to countless other manufacturers and makes some beautiful knives. Though I despise motorcycles on the open hwy., it looks like he died doing what he loved. Living to be 71 making a living from his hobby and died while driving what he loved.
