[WULF]

This is my opinel #10 modded,handle reshaped with finger groove and kydex fillet,reshaped blade.The blade doesn't go to far into the handle so I adapted the locking ring to lock the blade when its closed.Clad with a lanyard and my handmade copper hammered bead,hope you like

Go for it! Obviously limited with the blade shape wise but everything is all in the imagination.also they are cheap enough to cut and grind away and see what it turns out like,im considering doing a #8.
