Calling letter writing an “analog” endeavor, and seeking to inject pleasure into the mundane act of letter opening, Japanese designer Yohei Oki conceived of this bird-shaped letter opener in which the long tail acts as a knife. The seamless Birdie Paper Knife is crafted from brightly colored plastic (though a chrome plated brass version is also available), and is sweet looking enough to be an artful desk ornament when not in use.
