You got it OwE: #8.
Here is a pic of the Opinel model my son gave to many of the men in attendance @ his wedding. The Garden model, #8 size, stainless. He tells me that they all still have the knives and that they also enjoy them. I tied lanyards for hours, in various sizes and materials, using the Reeves hangman knot.

The Opinels are good-looking knives. Elegant, classic and very basic, all at the same time.
It occurred to me earlier, when I was actually measuring the images in your pic, then using the relative size comparison of each knife to 'calculate' the size of the Opinel, based upon what I already knew to be the size of the 110 (have one on my desk), I thought, "Wow, I really am 'obsessed' "

Thanks.
