My first knife a Laguiole is still in my belt holster. It made me a thousand services for 50 years !!! FRANCE product; made to last! My umpteenth mobile phone has barely lasted three years. Made ??? Manufactured for some time and that I bought another ... Not to mention its real utility. This OPINEL I offered my little son must face the years without failure and will make him a thousand services. BUY useful and FRENCH !!! if possible ...
