February 6, 201115 yr I am building my new website and would like some feedback on what you folks think. Thanks Bob
February 6, 201115 yr Bob, Just went to your website. Nice job! Easy to navigate through and understand. Very informational. Beautiful knives! Thanks Mark<><
February 6, 201115 yr Hi Rob, Positive: Good looking site, easy to navigate! Cool Classy product. Negative: Why isn't your Name/Brand on everything Currently available page? Nice site! Ian
February 6, 201115 yr Author Thanks guys! Ian most of the knives have my mark on the other side but i have no preference as to which side i mark them i depends on if i am feeling left or right . I will be putting up my available page some time soon along with a miniature knife page. Cheers Bob
February 6, 201115 yr A good looking site! Very nice photos! I like the knives too and your sheaths are quite as nice as the knives. RE: your kitchen knives I think you need some chef style knives for your portfolio, those straight bladed choppers may be what you prefer but cooks all over the world have learned to use the French chef style effectively (I like it myself). Your style development is younger than you think but I can see that you are talented and enthused... you have done well, but your best is yet to come.
February 6, 201115 yr Good looking site. I have added it to my favorites and will check back regularly.
February 6, 201115 yr Nicely laid out site, easy to follow with good pictures. I really like the miniature damascus anvil too!
February 6, 201115 yr Nice site! Hey, I might be in the market for a hunting knife!! Will you be adding prices to your knives?
February 6, 201115 yr Author Thanks again everyone! Iron clad as soon as i get my available knives page done they will all have prices. Cheers Bob
February 6, 201115 yr Bob, Nice job - real attractive layout and easy to get around! My only critique would be that I prefer to see product for sale as the "top of the list" navigation choices, the columns of descending pics with no details, leaves me wondering whether I'm looking at past work that's already sold or NFS. Your work is beautiful and I've got your site bookmarked so as to refer it to others. Thanks for sharing it!
February 6, 201115 yr Your site development is a class act. You ask for opinion, here is mine! I would have nothing negative to say about anything I have seen, and only positive thoughts come to my mind. Due "only to my liking", I always like to see inside of the shop that someone uses to create there products. I know that you said; " My shop has no fancy equipment just an anvil, propane forge, drill press and a 12" reversible disc grinder that my blades are ground on. Of course there are also many files and other hand tools needed to make my edged tools." But that is the magic of it. To see what a craftsman uses to create something as nice as the knives you create, even though it is simple! ~ I truly believe it adds value to your product at some level. To see inside your humble shop may motovate others who are beginning, and also make some of us that are blessed with large and well equipped shops to keep our feet on the ground and realize it it the craftsman his self, and not just the tools that bring life into the steel. This is just a suggestion and a though Only! From what I can see, you do not have to take a back seat to anybody! The very best to you! Ted Throckmorton
February 6, 201115 yr You do nice work and you are good at taking photographs . The thing that's a bit distracting is all the different backdrops, they seem to clutter the site. As a buyer i would rather see the work and only the work (against the same neutral background). Maybe look into building a lightbox. Nice stuff.
February 7, 201115 yr Author Thanks for the comments and recomendations folks i made a few changes . Bob
