if you want to increase the Treasure Hunter value, it is best to utilize equipment that has the Treasure Hunter+ effect.

This. You contradicted yourself in the same point, in two back-to-back sentences. I'm more inclined to believe that TH does increase the proc rate because of how the post is structured though.

It's as the community already believed. The TH upgrade chance depends on the difference between your current TH level and the TH level that's on the mob. The lesser the gap, the higher the chance.

The reason for doing it to Thief's Knife and nothing else is because no other job has had a weapon that is so important for a job that they would actually consider gimping their damage just to use it, even for only one hit.

Neither does THF. Thief's Knife is borderline useless. It's like requesting to upgrade Inferno Axe, because no other Great Axe had additional fire damage, and if you want that you lose damage from not using an Ukonvasara. The problem is with thieves and the community who view TH7 vs. TH6 as something holy, when it's absolutely not. TH+1 is not essential to a TH6 THF, no matter which way you spin it, it's not even borderline important. Yet even the people who know how useless it is are worried about it, mostly due to historical reasons and frustration rather than proper reasoning. There is absolutely no problem to be solved here.
