Hi guys

Trying to sort a logo for a knife making venture and need a few things done on a image and converted to a vector file.
Need a metal stamp made and the maker has asked for some stuff I not sure of…

Way out of my depth in doing anything needed.

I have the picture but just need some lines removed from it, and converted.

A laser etcher not an option (instead of a stamp)?

Probably still need the magic vector thing though.

My photoshop skills don’t extend very far so for this one I would do the old school print-scissors-scan method…..

Vector files are good because they can be used at any size and don't pixelate. They re-calculate their shape if you make bigger or smaller e.g. just as clear if on a stamp or on a billboard.

Your picture would need to be re-created in this format if that's what they require for printing. I'm, also happy to help if you need the vector created.

Thanks for all the offers @ext1 has helped.
Needed to make a touch stamp for metal so printing not needed.

To elaborate, the SVG, for scalable vector graphics, is not a picture but rather instructions to make a picture. Very useful, and usually smaller than a bitmap format.

"We have clearance, Clarence, roger, Roger, what's our vector, Victor?", that's all I can add to this subject.
