I took this out of its case to take a couple of pictures for a friend today. I thought I’d share them some of them.

This is a design that Chris played with, a hand made improvement on the ubiquitous Opinel design.

To the best of my knowledge he did 2 runs,1 when based in South African and a second after the family move to the US. 155172B2-D57E-4EA1-9402-76E71955C690-26900-0000197C7837E693.jpegC8E6DC7F-1468-4BA4-902C-A9134981F755-17117-0000048B0EF7E8E9.jpeg08D89840-74B8-4583-82AE-B69A7496DB2F-17117-0000048B0F2D727F.jpegIMG_2029.jpeg18AE4E55-32AE-4F45-B293-F61FEFCF8214-26900-0000197C7918E95F.jpeg
 
Nice one. I suspect this one was made in the later U.S. batch. I have one of the early ones and yours has some significant differences.
 
Most excellent piece. Thank you for sharing.
 
Can you post a photo of yours please?
I remember seeing some information about these a long time ago but not much!
Apologies I thought I had an individual picture of it but apparently I don't.
Here it is with some other stuff I picked up over the years. (the Lock 45 and small Sebbie belong to a friend)
In the next few days I'll dig it out of the flower pot it's buried in, wash off the soil and take a few pics. ;)

 
Steven65 Steven65 can you take some pictures of those other CR gems in that picture. Love to see more pics of the daggers and the one in the clog sheath! 😍 La Femme?
