Made a notch in the handle to make opening the blade easier, burned the handle, and gave the blade an artificial patina with lemon juice. It's an old knife I don't use much - just keep it in my bike backpack - but it's great for carving and food prep thanks to the thin blade.
The Opinel knives are goated!
My kids have the version with the rounded tip since they were four or five.
Great for carving sticks, hunting for mushrooms or just showing off with the nice belt etui they came with!
Nice. I also have one in my backpack always. Rarely use it, but when I do need it, it's there. Never thought about customizing it. Good one!
Very nice 😍
Turning them into a small project is a great idea
That is one loved knife! Good job!
I had an opinel oyster knife that I desperately miss
An excellent set of mods. Such a classic knife.
Love to see an Opinel here, a knife I actually have.
The flared base should help keep it from getting lost in dark crevasses.
