Swiss-based "interdisciplinary task force" Yuhzimi paired up with the 100-year old Victorinox to create a limited edition line of these artist-designed "Urban Survivor" pocket knives. Maharishi dressed theirs up with their trademark camo, WK Interact's features an abstract figure and a signature on the blade, and Fafi adorns the classic red with one of her heart-cheeked girls. Each features a different set of tools and all come with a custom-designed chain and package. Retailing for $89, only 200 of each will be made and they will debut at Fafi's opening this coming Monday at Colette in Paris, following sometime next month at 8Five2 in Hong Kong, Maharishi in London, Trust Nobody in Barcelona, 90sqm in Amsterdam, Evil Monito Co-op in Los Angeles, Greyone in Pasadena, Nomad in Toronto, and more to come. See some detail and Cool Hunting exclusive behind-the-scenes shots after the jump.

For several years, glass artist Beth Lipman has been reinterpreting classical still life painting with her carefully constructed assemblages of glass objects. An artistic practice that emerged in 17th century Europe, still life painting represented not only a formal and technical evolution in the medium, but a distillation of the political, moral and religious values of both artist and patron. By transforming the still life...
You'd be hard pressed to find a better medium for John Waters' own unique brand of trashy chic than the porcelain collector plate. Thanks to the NYC-based Adora Porcelain, the perfect pairing exists in the form of three plates, each adorned with one of Waters' photos of his "muses," Barbie-like dolls decked out with bouffants and thick black eye makeup.Limited to an edition of...
