That may surprise some people, but that is the way it is.
What's more is that this is the only style of knife that does nothing for me.
Tony.
Don't hold back Tony. Let us know how you really feel.Schradenut wrote: ↑Sat Jan 11, 2020 10:05 am I only own 1 Opinel and i hate it. There is nothing i like about this set of knives.

I too am not a fan of the "fat" blades but this one isn't too bad.Lansky1 wrote: ↑Wed Jan 15, 2020 12:09 am Tony,
I have to say I'm in agreement. I have had a few over the years - just don't like the shape of the blade with no drop and such a massive belly swoop leading to the point. I really like slim knives, so the big round frame doesn't work for me --- BUT --- I fully appreciate the super thin blade that is a bonafide slicer & the pure simplicity of the design and the unique rotating lock. I know "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" applies as they sell boatloads of them, but I just wish they would modernize it by offering some more conventional blade designs.
Kinda cool. Never have seen one.1967redrider wrote: ↑Mon Jun 01, 2020 2:01 am I just doubled my Opinel collection, added a No. 09 DIY. I like the bit driver tools for working on knives and firearms. Surprised at how much bigger it is than a No. 08. But that does give more leverage using the bit driver.

Maybe I will concentrate on them one day and buy a few or I just might come across some good
buys at a flea market.
This is the 130th Anniversary Opinel No. 8 that I ordered about a month ago.
