Update: still working on the third icon concept, but here are updates on the
first two ideas I have thus far: the letter opener, and the bowl of alphabet

Depends on when you went to design school. Before or after the great
digital convergence.
A lot of designers only work with computers, or their preliminary
sketches are little more than doodles.
All these concepts are so far along the path that it makes it hard to make
sweeping changes, because the difficulty of the actual changes to the image and
the amount of effort to overcome the inertia needed to make sweeping changes.
It's all digital. Much easier to change than a drawing. Want to move the
knife? Pick it up and move it. Viola, new orientation.
Want to change its shape? drag some handlers, new shape.
