Brand Tone

Informative, Pragmatic, and Enthusiast-Driven

Brand Values

• •Utility and Efficiency
• •Transparency
• •Expertise and Curation
• •Community-Focused

Best Practices

• •Prioritize Function Over Flair: The copy should always be clear, direct, and focused on the user's goal: finding a knife efficiently. Avoid overly poetic or abstract language. The brand's strength is its utility.
• •Speak as an Enthusiast to Enthusiasts: Use precise, correct terminology (e.g., "Gyuto," "Nakiri," "SG2 steel"). This builds credibility and shows you understand the product and the audience.
• •Maintain Transparency: Always be clear that KnivesCombined is an aggregator, not a seller. Phrases like "Compare prices from," "See buying options," and "Indexed from retailers like..." reinforce this and build trust.
• •Focus on the "Why": Emphasize the benefit to the user. Instead of saying "We list knives," say "Save time and money by comparing top knife retailers in one search."
• •Keep it Personal and Credible: Continue to leverage the personal "maintainer" aspect. Using "I" or "we" (as in, "we are enthusiasts") makes the brand more relatable than a generic corporate "it." This humanizes the brand and strengthens its community-driven perception.

Social Perception

The perception of KnivesCombined within its niche is that of a useful, no-frills tool. It is seen as a credible and helpful resource created for the community, rather than a large, impersonal corporation. Users who know of it likely see it as a smart first stop in their purchasing journey. The maintainer, Kenneth, adds a personal and trustworthy element to the brand.
