Super 9!
on: January 16, 2018, 12:38:40 AM
I just finished my first modded Opinel! :D I took a standard No 9, ground down the blade to a drop point edge, added a lanyard hole, and did some woodburning detail on the handles, Hence, Super 9! :cheers:

I like it. What motivated the change in blade shape?

Thanks Steve and Poncho!

Thanks Nix! :tu: I decided to modify the blade for two reasons. Firstly, I wanted to have a more unique appearance of the blade, and I wanted a blade with a strong tip to be able to do more controlled cuts for carving and scoring :cheers:

Thanks Ron and Nix! I did some work on the blade to give it an old, worn look yesterday.
