I'm not sure exactly. It's from a slightly different line, a gardening selection I believe. Most the pages I find on it are foreign so it's hard for me to figure out exactly what to call it.

Hope that helps.

Vivi, I can't PM you so her it is...

A translation from http://www.opinel.com/FR/catalogue/index.htm -> Les outils de jardin (done by Babel Fish)

''Stainless steel blade. Handle in natural varnished beech, with pass-thin strap. Sold limps about it individual informative and containing an explanatory leaflet on the uses and maintenance.
The knife of garden N° 8 With its pointed and thick blade, it is the ideal tool to weed or gather salads and dandelions.''

How do ya like the Fenix, I took one on vacation overseas and other than the New ARC that was clipped to my neckchain continuously, the Fenix was the light that was usually in my hand when I went walking after dark.

I know the bright light and AA battery blew everyone away.

It's a great light. Bright LED, takes easy to find and cheap AA batteries, has a clicky tail-cap, great size/fits in the pocket easily.....and you can find them for $35.00 (CountyComm)...I think it's the best value in a good light you can find currently.
 
I like the new Fenix L1T version. It's two-stage; the "high" output is a tad brighter than the L1P (a good trick in itself, off a single AA!) and lasts for about 90 minutes on an alkaline, 180 on lithium; the lower setting is plenty for 90% of what you need a small light for, and lasts for about 7 hours or so on an alkaline, twice that on a lithium.

Costs a little more than that CountyComm price, but IMHO it's worth it.

KamSingh beat me to it!! That's where I got mine. Fenix-Store has plenty of info, including actual runtime plots of the various lights. Very useful to see just what to expect from these lights.

Although, I can also vouch for LightHound, I've bought from there before, too. :thumbup:

Careful, though. Flashlights can be almost as addictive as knives!! :eek:
 
.. just what I need, another hardware addiction to EDC..:rolleyes: :D

Just kidding, Thanks again guys!..:cool:

That's about it i think :)

I am still looking for a good affordable tactical flashlight but haven't got a clue what to get hehe
 
I'm planning on doing the big switch to a small Sebbie, hopefully with wood or micarta inlays, for my new main EDC. But, I don't think it's going to happen soon, because I can't even force myself to carry my Strider PT, which is one of the most durable knives I've seen, of course I only carried it for a few days.

Right now, my EDC is my Queen stockman and my Benchmade Sequel.
 
Just got a Junglee Marshall which at the moment is my EDC. Not over impressed and can't get it shaving sharp!!! Maybe I'm loosing my touch.....
