Opinels. I have been doing carved Opinels for a long time now. The carbon blades are superb and the handles just cry out to be carved !
But I love all knives
About Me
I have been a woodcarver for a long time. Currently I am making slingshots and slingbows. previously I made whips. But I have always been asked to do personalised carved Opinels (and other knives) for folks
G'day, Ruth! Please let me know if you need any help getting settled in around here. We have some of the nicest, friendliest folks you'll be likely to find anywhere. So make yourself at home and feel free to ask questions if you have any.
Hi Ruth. I have been thinking about making a sea siren folder were a damascus blade would fold into an half ivory, half wood handle. I have a scrimshander that would do her upper half in the ivory and I thought it would be cool to have the lower half carved out of the wood. You would have complete artistic freedom to perform your work. Interested?
