Since childhood, I've been fascinated by wilderness survival shows, and Bear Grylls has been my idol. He whittles wood into fire, builds shelters in dire straits—those seemingly primitive survival tools became the purest form of design in my eyes. In college, I chose to major in industrial design. Armed with Rhino, KeyShot, and Photoshop, plus my apprenticeship under a professional knife maker, I smoothly landed a position at a knife manufacturing company after graduation.
