The No 9 DIY is one I've been looking for myself.  Absolutely worth a try if you found it for a good price.  It is not really the same as having a traditional wood handled Opinel, though, especially one with a carbon blade. I'm not saying don't get the DIY, but if you want the Opinel experience to see what the fuss is about get a traditional Opinel too.  They are well worth the price. :cheers:

I came across the Opinel 9 Diy with the screwdriver bits. Is it worth a try?

If you do wiring or simple electrical maintenance, it can be very handy. Even for scoring lumber or sheet rock.

The handle material is synthetic so moisture is not an issue, and if you need speciality bits easy to swap around.

My recent adventure will explain.   
I was returning from assisting my brother at mom’s house  examining the well pump for a couple day visit.  On my return home (120 miles trip), I stopped to visit friends who have a farm/ranch in northern Indiana.  It was Sunday so knew they would be home or near by.

While chatting his phone chirped, alerting to an issue with a pivot system that irrigates his seed corn.

He wanted to show it off and invited me along.   This field is couple miles away and involves 160 acres and 8 watering systems.  So off we go. With a side by side on a trailer.

He drove up into lane, unloaded the SxS, and we headed to the pivot with alarm.  All the other pivots are spraying and it was driving thru a fog. Yep #6 was dead.

He accessed the control panel with a key revealing a flat screen display, black!   After a few cuss words he said he needed to get a replacement panel, no good.
I was looking everything over, impressed, and tripped on a large rock and caught myself hitting the panel box. It jumped to life.  A LOOSE WIRE OR CONNECTION?
Then more cussing, tools box is at the barn!!!

Then I extracted the DIY from my  back pocket.  Let’s try, he said no good, need a T20TP bit!  Wha la, that is exactly what was in the handle. I needed same bit to access my mom’s

Removed the power panel cover, shut down the power to the control, and examined the wiring, hot was tight, neutral was loose and blacken, I pulled it back, cut black the insulation and with my rebar, cut a clean end and reinserted and then tighten the lug with medium flat driver on the LM.   Put the water tight panel back on, replaced the 7 Torx 20 TamperProof screws with the DIY. Applied power, it popped to life and confirmed programming. In business.  On way back to truck, the pivot came to life and I got drenched.

Did you do the work on these yourself? How much grinding was needed to fit the thumbstud? Thanks!

(If this is too long, mods please remove)

Yes I did work on these myself. The two part answer to your questions …
First the simple "Checkering" tool from my youth and the handle pin striping then the thumb stud. Lastly a short vid of it in real life.

Part 1 • The Handle




Many years ago and well before yours truly had become a teenager, I was enamoured with firearms. Gees, I could recite projectile weights, load in grains, muzzle velocities, distance drops of my favourite cartridges and shoot pretty well too. Gun design and gunsmithing looked very interesting and so set my mind to modifying the stock of my Gecado air rifle. That meant making a tool to make it happen so whilst in my Dad’s workshop, I stole a welding rod (manual metal arc stick), beat the flux off it and wire brushed it at one arbor end of a stone grinder. Next formed it with heat from an oxyacetylene kit to get a desired handle bend and with hammer flatten what would become the cutting end. The cutting head got finally formed with some fine files and heat treated via oxyacetylene and oil. I tried firstly with water but over heated the rod material and cracked it via thermal shock.

If you’ve come this far, so what is the significance of this recount. Well, I still have that tool and it is what was used to put the pinstripe pattern on the Opinel shown.

On a personal note, my Father was incredibly gifted at making steel do what he wanted. He happened to be working on a project and in a sincere effort to be like him I took on my big checkering tool project at the same time. What a laugh in retrospect and yeah those were wonderful times.

My very old amateur "Checkering Tool"



Part 2 • The Thumb Stud

Here’s my current thumb stud solution …




In order for the KWIK thumb stud to sit properly I had to remove a modicum of handle wood. That is so the grub screw could at least completely bite the blade, the blade could land fully in the handle and when open the recasso (not the stud) acted properly as the stop. That locus point necessitated the simplest of handle mod pictured.





btw, the KWIK thumb stud also acts as a neat thumb ramp when the blade is deployed.
Operating the Opinel swivel lock with thumb and forefinger is not a problem with one hand.
