This didn't work out as well as I thought it would but I think it's still pretty sweet.

You're gonna love it, and the 154CM is easy to sharpen on some ceramic rods, and holds a very scary edge.

Thanks Zack. I believe you.

I am very happy with it so far.

That is really great Spoon.

Not mine yet, but I'm watching the auction... Current bid 8$..
You guys think it's worth bidding on..?

Benner · **Reply #851 on:** October 03, 2009, 12:23:42 PM

I think so. They can be had fairly cheaply, but not $8 cheaply.

Do bear in mind that it has a 3.5" blade. Not sure if that effects legality or anything with you.

It won't be legal for EDC, but no problem with owning it..

It just went over 20$ and 4 days to go... I'll pass on this one..

AHB,

A year or so ago I was interested in getting one. Lee Valley Tools carries one that's within an hour of me.
They are a really cool little edc/picnic knife. Apparently though you have to be careful when putting the
blade back in the handle as the edge does in most cases make contact with metal. Some of the guys on
blade forums have stuffed some sort of stripping into the bottom of the handle to prevent damage to the
blade and it seems to work.

I'd love to get one of those languiole knives but they are too expensive.

Neil · **Reply #858 on:** October 03, 2009, 07:51:34 PM

Go cheapie and get an Opinel instead

Sean · **Reply #859 on:** October 03, 2009, 08:22:59 PM

Nothing wrong with an Opinel, I agree!

Heh I have a #8, it lives in my pen cup and is my desktop utility knife, one of my sharpest knife too.

Neil · **Reply #861 on:** October 03, 2009, 09:21:56 PM

Sharpest edge I ever got was on an opi. Scared me a bit

Nathan · **Reply #862 on:** October 03, 2009, 10:13:39 PM

I have several Opinels: nr. 6, 7 and 8. Great knives.

I have a No.7 here and +1 on the sharpness

Benner · **Reply #864 on:** October 03, 2009, 10:36:16 PM

I am still to try one. Will do one day.

Gareth · **Reply #865 on:** October 05, 2009, 02:54:30 AM

I have a modded #8 and a standard #12, both are great knives but I rarely use them anymore. I also have a nice Laguiole and it's a lovely pocket knife. Sean's right though, you have to be careful putting the blade away as they do strike the backspring. You also have to be a bit careful about buying Laguiole's, there used to be a good number of Chinese copies kicking about that were rubbish (I have one of those as well

). There are also dozens of French makers that produce to varying levels of quality, none are rubbish and some are excellent but you'll pay a good bit more than $20 for any of them in my (limited) experience.
