Shame it didnt work out for you both. Hopefully it'll catch someone elses eye.

 

Out of personal interest, how much would you of expected or liked to have paid. I say personal interest because im out in France and a big fan of opinels, for the cost and the purpose they serve me nothing comes close. Out here theirs a bit of a cult for customising them, carvings etc. Hence the question.

 

I kick myself for not buying an original carved badger opinel I saw in Lyon.

28 craftsmen couldn't mount an opinel in antler.

It was a question rather than a statement.

[bunny bandit 98]

I had this knife offered to me and to be honest if I had the money spare I would have purchased it.

 

The handle is a complete one of a kind and in my opinion the level of craftsmen ship that has gone into it justifies the price.

 

All the best and happy hunting.

I would have paid up to £160 .........

Price is immaterial because it all depends on who and why people buy the knife .

 

If someone here has a building firm and made real good money and ran dogs with her father 300 quid would be nothing to pay for a Christmas present

Actually might be more expensive as the pound is not great. But its the range.

This is the knife/shaving brush shop I found in Lyon.

Give the man a break, he made a knife and priced it in relation to the time and costs involved, you want something bespoke you pay for it.

 

You want a cheap over the counter knife, go to the fcuking counter

That's perfectly fair . Theirs plenty on here I've asked price for or seem price for and thought

 

"Ooft that's a bit steep"

 

I just leave the thread . No point putting off a sale for the guy . Let's be honest this knife won't sell on here now will it

 

I don't think people did it maliciously either just kind of snowballed
