Hello.
I have always liked Opinel knives, dont really know why. Maybe because they are so simple. Only thing I've never cared much for is the shape of the blade. I dont like the tip, its too big if you understand.
So today I reprofiled the tip on my opinel 6 to a more penblade shape. It completly changed the knife, I love it. It looks a little bit like the garden knife but with the normal handle. I will post photos when I find out how to.
The knife is a no 6 carbon, and has developed a nice patina over the years.
I guess this is quite a normal mod on these knives.
If you guys have modified your opinels, it would be interesting and much appriciated og you post some pics .
