Love it
I have a no. 6 and a no. 7 and they are really nice, but the no. 8 is a bit special. It is the original Opinel size, and the extra length and weight give it a great deal of presence. The oak handle elevates it further. All in all a pretty unbelievable pocket knife for the price. A real heritage treat. (And brilliant customer service yet again from HH -- thanks Richard for sorting a user issue).
