These awesome letter opener designs will have you begging for tons of junk mail just to give you an excuse to use them.
With the invention of email, people now receive most (if not all) of their correspondent electronically. Even bills are now sent through emails as opposed to being delivered by hard working mail carriers. Therefore it seems bizarre that there are still companies out there innovating on the design of the traditional letter opener of yesteryear.
From a samurai katana letter opener, to a Game of Thrones mail opener, and even a deadly military weapon letter opener, these letter opener designs are so awesome, you'll be looking for any excuse to use them. Just make sure to take care that you don't go overboard with them when you quickly run out of mail to open.
