Opinel fan's.

[jackknife]

I know there's some fan's of them around here. I have this little booklet/brochure from them telling all about the history of the company, the knives, and product line. History of the crowned hand trade mark and stuff. It's a little 6 page thing they sent me when I was doing an article about them for Knife World Magazine back around 89 or 90. I want to pass it on and maybe one of you traditonal knife fans would like to read it, and pass it on.

Send me an E-mail if you want it. It's not great literature, just a interesting little read.

That would be cool. Maybe someone could scan it and either post it here or email it anyone interested. I'd certainly do that.

If jackknife doesn't have a scanner, I'd be more than happy to scan and post it.

I've seen a lot of talk about Opinels on the forum and just got a #6 and #8 garden knife for Christmas. I am looking forward to reading about their history.

jackknife sent the info to me via snail mail. I should have it in a day or two. I'll scan it and post or I'd be glad to email it to you if you'd rather print it out and read it.

 

[stockdog]

Nice, Thanks

 

[matt]

that would be great and appreciated.

I have three I think, this one has about a 5" blade. I carved the handle using a Dremel tool to give it some character.

 

[rifon2]

I'm also a big Opinel fan.

Just noticed that they're making the #8 in a "slim" version; haven't seen it before.

So I bought one (of course) and eagerly await its arrival.

Love the blade shape on it as well as the slim handle.
