New Logo design

Pretty cool looking to me. Looks very tactical, so may not go great with traditional styled knives, but a cool logo overall. Only problem I see is that people won't associate your name with that logo. They may recognize the logo, but there's nothing in the logo to remind them of who you are, if that makes sense. I.e. someone looks at a Spyderco logo and says "What's that company.... spider something... ummm, oh yeah, Spyderco!" Not that you're trying to become a national brand or anything, but the logo should be a trigger for someone to remember you/your business/your product. May be worth it to talk to a graphic designer, tell them what you do and what you're looking for and let them figure something out... But, I think it's really cool and besides maybe not being the "theoretical ideal" logo I think it's clean, would work well on a blade, would look cool on apparel, etc. Way to go!
 
Chiro 75 look at the logo close,My last name is House note the H in the middle of it,I want to make people look at it,kinda make them think that way they will will remember it when they see it again ,I guess I am kind of strange,I never really liked my last name on my blades,I Wanted to find my own grove,kinda wanted to step out side the norm,some great makers use logos and very seldom use there name but yet when you see the logo you know who it is ;)

Matlock a stencil,I have it made up so the break in the lines burn clean when the logo was taken down to the size I will use.I have seen some logo burned and they looks like a black blob,I want it crisp and clean and the design will lend itself to that :)
 
Nathan, I gotcha, it's just H is H, it's not a Nike swoosh, or a spider, or what have you. "I know it's this H guy. Hamilton, no that ain't right... Howard... yeah, maybe that's right..." I'm not a marketing guru, and like I said, branding a handmade knife is a lot different from the idea of using a logo in mass marketed products. Don't get me wrong, I think it's a cool logo and I think it's perfect for a knife, it just might not immediately be associated with you in people's minds, if you catch my drift. Just put Coca-Cola® on it and call it a day! :D
 
suggestion - etch the "white space"...the voids....instead of the lines. stronger visually.
 
I like it, I like it better with DK's shading.
The triangle represents an A frame house, at least from here :)
If you really wanted to push the 'house' part of the triangle, let the top of the right vertical in the H poke thru the triangle, a little, to make a chimney.

You could always put your name around the bottom of the circle, but I don't think it is necessary.
Good job.
