I like this paper knife design by Tapio Wirkkala. I can see powerful and dynamic shape which is a sort of his design's speciality. Off course, it is quite easy to open a letter. And the figure on the desk is very beautiful. Small thing but very conciderabled design with it.

It is Tapio Wirkkala's quite exllent design which is continuasly manufactured long time. I realy think what I could purchase such kind of item at the shop is very happy. His paper weight is exsist in past but not production at the moment. I hope exllent design collections should be continue from now on.
