A nice pic that I found on the Gardenista website. Makes me realize I need more Opinels. Especially that spear point. The second pic is my own; obviously I'm still missing a few models.

So (as for the second pic), one for all and all for one? The Three Bushketeers?

Put the Bricolage to hard work today installing lattice around our deck.  The Philips head worked like a champ removing screws and the blade made short order of some trimming.

Really softens the look by taking off the hard angles of the handle and smoothing out the tip, very nice :tu:

How do you guys treat the handle to avoid swelling?

I've never had the problem so bad that I couldn't open the blade so I'm sorry to say I do very little other than keep them in a dry place.
Be excellent to each other and always know where your towel is.

I don't try to avoid swelling, ever!

No, not for that reason!
 :twak: :twak:

It's just that if you get the handle to swell, when it gets back to "normal", the blade is looser and it's easy to open, close.
