People will be able to channel their inner Crocodile Dundee with the Fangblade by Stephan Alexandr, an artist and designer based in Portland, Oregon. Although it might be a smaller knife than the actual Australian hero would carry around, it does have a mean and rugged look that will appeal to many. Nevertheless, it is only equipped to open letters, not guts.
A complementary piece of decor for the painted animal skull artworks, the Fangblade by Stephan Alexandr is made for those wanting to add a modern rustic flavor to their home. Despite being made out of an alligator's jaw, the handles have been painted an array of bright colors for a contemporary twist.
