Welcome from across the pond! We love pictures of both the knives you own AND the knives you have created!

Re: hi from France
Cool. Just across the border from Italy and very close to Switzerland. I'll bet it's beautiful there. Pictures of your area would also be well received. There's an entire thread called "Outdoorsman Thread" that is devoted to that kind of thing. ---► viewtopic.php?f=21&t=28684

Re: hi from France
Welcome to AAPK. Would like to see your knives. And we can use any help you can give regarding French and Europen made knives. We have some other members here from Europe but the more the better!

Re: hi from France
Great to have you here Christophe! We could use an expert on French knives, tang stamps, etc. here. While you like U.S. slip joints if you also collect French knives any printed resources you use in your own collecting of vintage French knives would be a great addition to the AAPK Resource section.

Re: hi from France
France is famous for the Riviera, but did you know America has a Riviera too? It's called the Redneck Riviera, Panama City Beach, Florida.
All that to say: to AAPK from about 40 miles north of the Redneck Riviera.

Re: hi from France
Thanks to all
Opinel was born 40 kilometers from home, they are responsible for my addiction
An example of my work I'll post other photos in custom knives
