So I was in a favorite gun shop today and seeing his selection of locally made custom knives got the itch going so I started looking for something I could afford and saw an nice looking Opinel sitting all neglected in the back of the case. At $13 I decided "What the heck, I don't have one of those." So I bought it. I didn't notice until he handed me the box that it is, apparently, a special edition. A 500 year commemorative of Christopher Columbus coming to America, so made in 1992. It has a mirror polished blade, a nice etching on the blade, handle is Rosewood and it is numbered. Knife is brand new, box is a little worn on the edges. Is this something collectible?
