Product designers Chen Chen and Kai Williams have devised an ingenious way to kick it off the launch of their online shop. For thirty days the duo will be selling an edition of primitively designed and constructed knives and tools. Dubbed the Shank Shack–a new shank will be unveiled daily for thirty days. They’re on the ninth day today. The shanks are purely an exploration of form and scale, say the designers. It’s up to you to interpret them the way you want. Treat them as art, daily instruments or protection for when you find yourself in harms way.
