Advice on design requests from customers
Hi all.
Hope you had a lovely Christmas and New years Eve. So a girl i know wants me to make a hunting knife for her husband. No problem i say lets talk design. I have a few of My designs i send her so she can help with materiale selection. Yesterday she returns with 6 image of knifes that would be her husbands "dream knifes" and asks if i can make one similar to one of those. They are highly complexe and quite Ugly, by My opinion. I dont want to replicate another persons design, and im not sure how much of the design from the Pictures i should try to incoorporate in My Own designs. So My question is, do you Guys make knives as the customer describes, or do you have some "standard" design customer can make slight customizations on? Im running a very low tech operation, and use a lot of time on just one knife Even thought its one of My own known designs. Hope you can give me some guidance 🙂 Last edited by Rasmus Kristens; 01-13-2019 at 03:56 AM. |
