Is the icon design stilll open to ideas? I've played around with some
sketches as well, but I do not want to step on anyone's toes.

Update: still working on the third icon concept, but here are
updates on the first two ideas I have thus far: the letter opener,
and the bowl of alphabet soup.
To me, it seems like carts have been put in front of horses. I
always thought the process to a well designed *anything* is to
sketch on paper a lot of ideas before pushing final pixels.
Depends on when you went to design school. Before or after the great
digital convergence.
A lot of designers only work with computers, or their preliminary
sketches are little more than doodles.
All these concepts are so far along the path that it makes it hard
to make sweeping changes, because the difficulty of the actual
changes to the image and the amount of effort to overcome the
inertia needed to make sweeping changes.
It's all digital. Much easier to change than a drawing. Want to move
the knife? Pick it up and move it. Viola, new orientation.
Want to change its shape? drag some handlers, new shape.
