Happy As Larry
I’m Jake Diaz, the designer behind Happy As Larry.
I am an Australian knife designer with a background across multiple manufacturing industries. I bring a process-driven approach to pocket knife design, using sketches and CAD and iterative prototyping to create knives that prioritise real world use and efficient manufacturing.
My focus is on designing knives that are practical without feeling ordinary - balancing clean aesthetics with purposeful engineering. Thoroughly considering all the details to ensure each knife performs even better than it looks.
