The Opinel knife was invented by Joseph Opinel in 1890 in Savoie as a simple working man’s or peasant’s knife. It proved popular with the local farmers, herdsmen, and peasant winemakers of the area. In 1897, a series of twelve sizes, numbered 1 to 12, was developed. The one pictured here is a size 7 and is inscribed with Urchin words of wisdom – “Don’t Give Up The Ship”.
Introducing ‘Roubaix’ Sem/Sav and Shiraz from Margaret River. Exclusively made and sold as Hell of the North’s house white and red. Appropriately named after the french cycling race which inspired ‘Hell of the North’ as a title for the new Fitzroy bar/restaurant. Finishing the oldest one day professional bike race was an extreme challenge, few finished in one piece due to it’s difficult conditions. So in a round about way, riding this race and winning was like taking down a tough animal… Survival of the fittest. Enjoy a sunday in hell with Roubaix.
“This wasn’t a race, this was a pilgrimage…”
Henri Pélissier, speaking of his 1919 victory.
