My personal take on the phrase "Stay Sharp", this is sort of a slightly vintage twist with the distress and hand lettering and illustration. I was really inspired by the slightly imperfect nature of old nautical and military phrases etched into stuff. I was then further entranced by the phrase "Stay Sharp" because of the variety of meanings it carrys depending on the context... It can mean anything from "Be Alert" to "Be Smart" to "Be Slick / Smooth" kind of like an old time swindler or sharper.
