After picking up an opinel to try,I found I have an extreme hatred for the wood handles. After some planning and a few drawings, one rainy morning in my shop (today)I came up with this! Another to add to the rotation. View attachment 934552

Beautiful work! Takes the Opi to a whole 'nother level and with the snag Opinel just ran into ( making a change to their trusted and true design) I can see ppl lining up to pay you for this model. Great work!

Now for the real question, where do I sign up for one?:p:D

Thanks! It’s fine texture g10. Thank you to everyone for the positive feedback! This project has been on the back burner since winter, I just happened to have some time today to finish it. I don’t have any plans to make more right now (very busy work schedule) but I did make some patterns along the way.

I'm still running a day behind on my carry knife for "today". Yesterday I had my KW S90V Millie with me working in the shop building a bench for my outdoor shower project on a rainy day. I used it to help clean out some of the mortises I cut into the Meranti legs.

Got this one just for curiosity and I'm really surprised!!.. it's a beast of knife, fit and finish awesome, IKBS bearings, really smooth action, the kind of Persian style of the blade is beautiful. Hollow grind and crazy sharp just out of the box. I always ear don't buy knives with gun brands, but this is the exception of the rule...
