There's no reason your knife holder shouldn't be a bit more awesome, like the Voodoo Knife Holder by Viceversa. With the image of a voodoo doll stabbbed by several knives, the object is more than just a functional design, it is a work of art.

By creating goods that offer the same high-quality product utility that consumers yearn for -- but with a humorous twist -- consumers are more likely to buy double. Consumers who already purchased certain goods are more likely to buy duplicate products if they feel your product adds a unique must-have twist to something they may already have.
