As the editor of the MTK column for some years, I can attest that the column was always written by a solo writer, and that the writer changed a handful of times during MacWEEK's decade-long life.
To be sure, reporters in the newsroom contributed tips that made up a lot of the meat of the weekly column. The Knife was not some independent reporting monster; he always fed of the scraps of the legitimate news table. But there was no collaboration on the writing of the column.
