With a name like Adrian Cutts, it seems this UK import turned CQ entrepreneur was destined to sell and sharpen knives for a living.
In fact, Mr Cutts spent the best part of 35 years travelling from Cairns in the north to Tasmania in the south, in search of the perfect sea-change.
He ran PADI scuba dive shops, tackle shops and sea kayaking adventures up and down the east coast of Australia before settling on a mobile knife sharpening business in Yeppoon.
He âcut his teethâ in the trade, so to speak, filleting his own fish.
âI had a site opposite Keppel Bay Plaza â it was no rent, which was nice, but I was at the mercy of the elements,â he said.
