My lounging around the house lazy sofa surfing carry today was my “souvenir” from Alaska.
This is a handmade knife by Robert Cutler, an Alaskan artist specializing in fine woodworking. From what I understand, he makes only a few knives each year.
Anyway, what drew me to it is that it’s a one-of-a-kind knife made in Alaska using materials sourced from Alaska; from the moose antler bolsters and inlays to the various types of wood used for the scales.
I realize it won’t be everyone’s cup of tea, but it screamed “Alaska” the moment I saw it.
Plus, I’m currently stuck in that awkward space between Large and XL shirts. Large are too small, XLs are too big…..so a souvenir t-shirt was off the table altogether.
