I finally got around to it. There is not much on there but hopefully with time I’ll have more to add.
What do you guys think? I am shooting for a clean, easy to read and navigate, nothing fancy.

Thanks for looking.

I think its clean and well done...my only recommendation if you want one is make that home page Knife pic larger...You do great work, Now display it Loud and Proud! Otherwise good colors and its easy to use
 
A visually appealing site, with a nice blue background but good letter visibility, some good knife pics of nice knives, and simply/easy to navigate. "Dramatically improve you(r) pictures" and ground "braking" (breaking) were the only real spelling issues I saw. I think you've got a winner with a lot of room and years to grow! May I suggest that you put a couple pics and an explanation of your dust collection system up in tutorials? I'll put you in my site links if you'll link me back....

Nice site - very clean and open-feeling. I like the tutorials page, which offers very good info with just the right amount of text and image. I would suggest that the last sentence "If am telling you..." should be "I am telling you..." on the lightbox page. And you're right! Good photos are worth a lot. You have a definite style going there, and I like it. I wish you'd show more of your work! And I second the request for larger pics. :)
 
Nice site! One thing, though. In your gallery pics, wouldn't the piece named "Wedding", be more appropriately named "Divorce"? :D
Just kidding brother.

Thanks guys for the good words and recommendations. I've started to work on a few.
I'll work on better pics but sadly I don't have much more work to show yet. I don't want to show the bad stuff. ;)
Salem, link added thanks. (I'll add the dust collection on the to do list)
IG, yes a shop tour is on the to do list.
Mitch, they are still married so hopefully it's aptly named. :) (It's a cake knife by the way if anybody wonders.)
Terry, thanks a bunch. I'll see about putting it in in the next big update.

Would banners be better than plain links in the links section?

Thanks again for all the great help.

I think you should change one thing with the gallery pictures. On the first picture, I think you should take off the < arrow, and likewise on the last one, take off the > arrow. I spent about two minutes clicking on that arrow before I realized it wasn't going to change the picture :o
