I am an attorney who is representing a belt grinder manufacturer in a product liability case involving a hobbyist who was injured while using my client's machine to make a knife. Because the case is presently in litigation, I can't be too much more specific than that. What I am looking for is an expert witness - preferrably someone with a nice combination of expertise in both machine design and knife-making - who might be available to inspect the machine that my client manufactures and give me a candid opinion as to whether it is defectively designed or not. Any leads that anyone might be able to provide would be greatly appreciated. (The case is pending in New England.) Thanks.
