Coghlan's? Ha, that's smalltime, Baladéo is much worse. Pic obviously related. You're lucky that shit is seldom seen outside of Europe.

Worst thing is, their stuff is actually decent and very affordable, so it's tempting as fuck.

And then you have Cao, which is like hardcore stuff. That whistle comes with a compass, a thermometer and a magnifying glass. You can't possibly leave an /out/doors store without one of their product.

oh god, I have oft praised the good people of coghlan's for providing every little knicknack you could possibly ever desire for /out/ activities (albeit for cheap), but I would never want to see someone fall into the downward spiral that is the coghlan's catalogue.

every fucking outdoors-related store, plus my local hardware store, has like 2 aisles of coghlan's stuff and it's hard to not buy some of it. their product line soundly puts companies like coleman's to shame. -__-

I actually got one of these used that had been sitting in a painters kit for...a decade or so.

cleaned the paint and crap off the blade, polished it up and sharpened it and it's still a great knife.

Some coghlans products aren't...amazing. But sometimes they make, or out-source, real fucking gems.

I also have a coghlans firesteel. And while it's literally the $2.50 firesteel from DX.com with the coghlans logo on it and a $2 markup, it's still a pretty good fire steel.

not the anon you're respinding to but i don't actually think so. there are a number of opinel-a-likes out there and I would wager that coughlan's brands one of those cheaper ones for themselves.

that said my brother bought a "generic" opinel about 12 years ago and it's fantastic, and he still uses it, so I wouldn't be overly pessimistic about it either

A friend of my dad's used to use those all the time. He'd buy a bunch at a time and see how many pointed the same direction and the ones that seemed the most accurate he used. I once got lost on a lake with him because the one he used broke during the trip. Nothing like paddling around for hours before he finally pulls another one of those ball compasses out of his dry bag and compares the two.

I AM that poster, and yes, it is a opinel made knife, and I know this because it says "Coghlans, made in France by Opinel" on the handle. Also, it has the "le savoyard, france" blade mark.

The lockring is an opinel patent, which implied it for me.

I'm ashamed to say that I have one of those.

Have one of those too, thanks Scheels. The temp never changes from 70F.

They have entire sections of Scheels devoted to stupid shit like this. Coincidentally, the RV section is right next door.

Honestly, the bottle opener, and even the little wrench cutouts I couldn't care about, but that clunky ass can-opener at the tip is just...bad design.
