My two-bladed "French Trapper" :D

Is that your mod?   I never saw one like that before.  :o

 That would be great if it was a blade and a saw IMHO   :D

Yes, I got the ideal from a French site...there are a lot of Opinel mods going on, mostly handles. Here's one - LINK

The saw is on a No.12 handle...I suppose it could be done, but it would be a large knife. Too bad they don't have one in the No.9 or 10 range.
