Design Brief Knife Project
Client: Ms. Young
Designer: Lachlan Todd
Problem statement. I plan on designing a Hunting Knife that is true to size involving all the correct parts.
Constraints:
I want the knife to be around 6-8 inches in height, about 2-3 inches wide, The first few days of the project like 3-4 days will be used for planning and researching my knife and all the parts it involves looking at designs will help inspire me, I will hopefully be finished deciding on a design by the end of the fourth day. The next week will be used for actually creating the knife in Inventor. Any spare days I have left over will be used for catch-up on the project in case I am behind and for material and color way and also reflections and ground plane shadows. Also, I will use some of this time for renders of the knife and the environment and drawing files and part renders. i estimate the price of this knife to be around $ 229.13 based on the cubic inch.
Deliverable: The end product of my knife will be an assembly file of all the parts, a presentation file, an animation, and a rendered image, and drawings of my rough copies.

Inspiration
The image above is what I used for inspiration for the creation of my knife. I knew I wanted to have a aspect of wood in my knife so I decided to use wood for one of my parts the handle would have oak smoothed wood. This knife image helped inspire me that I could actually have a pretty big blade so that is what I chose to do.
