These animal knives by Consigli are the cutest way to carve up a steak. Although the animals look soft and playful, do not attempt to cuddle them!
These knives are probably the truest juxtaposition ever created in a piece of cutlery. Typically a knife is known for its vicious functionalities. By coupling the knives with adorable little animals, levity and humorous irony is created.
Believe it or not, the critters are useful too. Each animal serves as the finger groove in which to open the knife when it is in the folded position. This is certainly a creative and playful way to offer functionality to a knife.
Among the animals included are a wide-eyed owl, a frog and a cat. Each of animal knives is foldable and comes with a choice of boxwood or horn handle.
