The Cooper Creek | Paring KnifeSoon to be available on Kickstarter Next 3 Iconic Rivers "Kickstarter"! Cooper Creek doesn't look like much on a map. A thin blue line wandering through the Channel Country easy to miss next to the great rivers. But when the rains come north, the Cooper carries water across half a continent, turning red desert into a green inland sea. When it reaches Kati Thanda, the desert blooms. The Cooper Creek Paring Knife earns its name for the same reason.
