I would have never considered myself a pocket knife person. In my mind, pocket knives are for people like my cousin who live part-time in Alaska and can field dress a deer. I, a soft-handed city dweller on the flight side of the fight-or-flight spectrum, am the opposite of that. My relationship with knives begins and ends in the kitchen. Well, it did, until one fateful day a year ago when I was browsing a concept knife boutique with my dad in Denver.

Rating a Few Pieces From Kelly Clarkson's New 'French Country' Home Decor LineKelly Clarkson, like many celebrities before her, has partnered with a furniture and home goods retailer to sell products meant to reflect her personal style. This time, her expensive Wayfair line promises French countryside but really delivers modern farmhouse, an extremely popular and extremely boring interior design aesthetic accessible to anyone with a car, considerable disposable income and an Ashley’s Homestore in their strip mall. (That is to say—much more expensive than thrifting, and yielding cookie-cutter results.) But it’s not fair to knock it till I try it, so let’s examine some of the pieces, one-by-one.
