Animal-Shaped Knife Ads

The Tramontina Campaign Targets Fish and Meat Eaters

— January 10, 2013 — Marketing
The Tramontina campaign simply and cleverly shows what it is made for. Each blade of the showcased knives have been shaped into a particular animal.

Conceived and executed by Inbrax, an ad agency based in Santiago, Chile, the Tramontina campaign was art directed by Manuel Saballa with creative direction by Fernando Cuevas, who also wrote the copy. Captured against pale pastel backdrops, the minimal nature of the images allows people to focus on what the message being sent fully.

Retouched by Manuel Saballa, the Tramontina campaign is utterly playful, appealing to creative and imaginative adults.
