Cheers Mr Fenna,
They are very pretty knives and I do like Opinels. One of mine is a limited edition 1992 Albertville Winter Olympic knife. And for years it sat in a drawer in it's box never being used. But like you I felt that it needed to get out of the house and earn it's keep, which it does admirably.

Cheers for taking the time to do the review.

Ah, the Albertville Olympics - I was there!
A friend won a Chalet Holiday for 12 in the 3 Vallees over the duration of the Winter Olympics ...and invited me and the Mrs along - flights , Ski lessons, all lift passes everything bar event tickets and one meal for FREE!
I nicked one of the big blue "Welcome" flags and bought a white beret with the Albertville Winter Olympic logo as souvenirs - missed out on the Opinel....
