French regional knives...

3 from

Brive-la-Gaillarde​


These are made by the original owner/maker the new owner/maker is also very good and has a new design I realy like.

They are tough,pinchable (by design),practicable,stainless,strong and have a firm blade.


If you factor in the cost of the ferry,fuel and accommodation to get there to buy them (been twice).

They are my most expensive knives that's after the Svord which I went to New Zealand to buy 😂

A very nice trio with some adventure involved. I really like the contours of the handles.
 
I have a few Opinel now,personelly I love it when people put them down as not a good knife. 😅

Just about anywhere in the world or at least in Europe you can go into a shop, buy a decent cutting knife at not a big price with no drama and just use the thing.

So very light, stick one in your bag when hiking or for emergency's.

Here I have two inox,I like shape of the garden knife a lot.

2 old design without the lock (not counting the very small one).

Some as you can see I have re contoured the handles.

I have one more in my shed with half a worn down blade stuck in the handle I use for scraping.

The no8 is probably the best all round size for most jobs.

My storage pouch is one of a few I bought from a Army surplus store its for a rifle cleaning kit,perfect for the job and keeps them organised in my draw.

What's not to love? 😍

does the knife with the blade with a hump have a name or pattern name? Style? Thanks for sharing.
