First Opinel mod I've watched in which the modified knife looks better than the original.

[@NMBWoodworks]

Thanks!!! That's a great thing to hear

[@michaelj2439]

Lovely job! I’d never thought about a modification like that, great idea!

[@greyscout01]

Great job!

[@ronsbeerreviewstools4361]

Good job, looks good.

[@ExplorerJust]

I had a bash at an Opinel mod a few weeks ago... nowhere near as brilliant as yours, but just enough to make it mine!

[@AndyCPugh]

That looks very nice!

[@NMBWoodworks]

Thanks Andy

Интересный пример кастомизации. Я делась 2 варианта для садового ножа торец их дюралюминиевого уголка а рукоять покрыл кожей кризи хорс, а второй #9 торец тоже дюралюминий а рукоять кожей рыбы в обоих случаях ножны из кожи темляк и бусины. В вашем случае думаю можно улучшить вид проставить между слоями дерева фиброн - белый толщиной 0,5 мм и придать изначальную форму(округлую)

[@STUFFWEDO]

Great video. Thank you for sharing

[@jn7420]

Outstanding !!

[@NMBWoodworks]

Thanks!

[@ItAintMeBabe99]

Awesome ! Should of taken off the “lock ring” first. It would of made it easier, and wouldn’t have to worry about touching it with the saw blade. JMHO !

[@petermitchell7851]

With a design that reduces the width of the handle, you’re reducing the integrity of the handle. Yes, you replaced the width at some point, but where the handle narrows into the collar is now permanently thinner. Have you used this knife enough after the modification to know if you can still pic much force into it without splintering the handle?

[@The_RC_Guru]

These are light duty knives.

[@dananorth895]

Definately, I think of the Opinel #8 as the perfect outdoor steak knife. Lol For $20.00 it's a good, cheap, general purpose, get er done knife. Not for prying, splitting or throwing!

[@kenniegarner3848]

That is very nice!!!!

[@NMBWoodworks]

Thanks

[@FeatherForge]

Spot on chap.

[@NMBWoodworks]

Thanks Andy, I need to come visit you at some point to learn about blades, I didn't dare mod that because I don't understand heat treats etc and didn't want to ruin it!

[@FeatherForge]

Otra forma de protegerla, la madera, es introduciéndola en aceite de lino, dentro de una bolsa de vacío para que penetre en la madera, y repetir el tratamiento a las 48 horas, y luego dejar la madera al sol bajo los rayos, y el efecto V

[@alesmv]

Está bien el proyecto, pero quede incompleto, si no se hace la protección con barniz, también en la madera bajo el metal, y en el centro de giro de la hoja .... creo yo ...

[@fgexpertlwfabricegueroux3840]

[@Hunglikeagrimsmo]

Looks good. Would probably break very easily now tho

[@NMBWoodworks]

hasn't broken in the last 2 years! thanks for watching

[@stevebarkman2681]

Perfect knife to 'modify' because they're so inexpensive. No matter if you foul it up. If Opinel made them fancier they would be more expensive, totally missing the point (sorry) of such a simple tool.

[@NMBWoodworks]

Completely agree. The cost of getting it wrong is low enough! Thanks for watching

[@mauriceclark4870]

The. Only. Problem. With. Carbon. Blades. They stain. Easily. !!!!
