website was redesigned

Guys!

I just redesigned our website.
Idea is to use new pictures, so customers will see out models better.

Let me know what you think.

I think it is decent.

Are there fewer knives shown? I seem to remember more models.

 

[kancler]

yes. Some models we do not make anymore. I have listed only models available for international orders

I like that specifications are now in imperial rather than metric. The website in general is much easier to use.

 

[kancler]

thank you.

In my experience, knife business is moving online. I don't know any retail stores with cutlery around me. Just big guys like Walmart, BassProShop etc...
Even shows don't get as many visitors as it was before. Everything goes in Internet.

All my younger friends (21-35 y.o) are buying knives online for 98% of the time.

So I think understandable and easy to use website is very important for any knife maker now.

agree?

 

[orthogonal1]

I agree that the new website is easier to find what I want to know.

And I agree that knife sales seem to be going to the net versus brick and mortar stores.

Very nice. I only have one of your knives; the Russian Bayonet. It's a great product.

Don't want to bother anyone but would be even better to have both (metric and imperial), and possibly approx weight (important when hiking/hunting, for big knives)

Being European I obvious prefered the metric specifications

But it's not difficult to converse.

I was under the impression Canada also used themetric system

Yes Canada is Metric for most things. We made the switch from imperial in about 1976. For some things however, such as lumber and smaller tools such as knives most of us still think in terms of inches and feet.

I agree with one of the other's that the ideal for this website would be both imperial and metric for size measurements as well as weight .

By the way Neo, my family originates from Holland/Belgium (on my Father side). I hope all is going well in that neck of the world.
