old mini opinel how old is it?or is it fake ?

From the better pictures, it appears it is a stainless n°2, no locking on n°2, so not a clone. Sometime the crowned hand is replaced by a single crown only on n°2.
According to the chart, stainless came after 1967.

Another n°2, carbon, #1955 - 60

Thanks, good info. Makes sense the crowned hand being replaced by just the crown, the No.2 being so diminutive ;)

If you can find a crown from time to time they are rare, the rule is the crowned hand as shown on the official site.

Henry Beige, Just right click on the picture and save it to your computer.

Smacking myself in the forehead. Apple device doesn’t have a right click, but it does have a save option. Smacking myself again. Thx.

Jolipapa, thanks for the offer on the French. I was sort of kidding about that. Got the English version.
