One other thing I forgot to mention about the Opinel is how well they work with a ferro rod. Being carbon steel and having a square shouldered spine they throw out a great shower of sparks !!!:thumbup:
How does the fact that it's carbon steel enter in to it? Ferro rods will work with any sharp, hard edge.

Just tried this and got lots of sparks w/ some known carbon steel knives, but only very small sparks w/ a couple of 440c knives and a butter knife thrown in. A screwdriver also sparked good w/ the 'light my fire' rod.
glass will also work.
