Opinel Friction Folder Interest? Anyone? Bueller?

That would not work with the Opinel's ring bolster (not the lock, but the inner pinned ring), unless the tang went over the back of the handle, which would be pretty weird and ungainly.

I suppose you would have to cut the ring bolster into two parts and add a stop pin to make it work on an Opinel, but aftwards, it wouldn't be an Opinel anymore... or, I guess you can add a flat tang like on a Higonokami, but that wouldn't be like the Peasant any more...
It would look like a gimpy Russlock
 
It's a cool idea. I want a friction folder, I don't like the look of Svord's offerings. The more options on the market, the better for me.
