I needed a knife that I could travel with and this guy meets the restrictions of the places I went. It's a great knife. Nice and sharp. I'll carry it more often.

I have many folding knives but finally decided to pick up one of these Opinel's. It's not the best knife in the world, but isn't the worst either. I doubt it would be a good idea to utilize the knife in any sort of heavy duty task, but would be adequate for light, and many moderate jobs. I admire the simplicity of it, and it definitely has an appeal all of it's own. I do like how light it, is and also how smooth it is which makes it comfortable to carry in a pants pocket. You barely even know it's there. The steel parts are a form of stainless, and there's not much to worry about as far as rust and corrosion as the handle is wood. The best sharpener I've found for the type of steel on this knife is a cheap little pocket sharpener that has the ceramic V block in it. The ceramic does a pretty good and quick job of sharpening this, where other types didn't do so much. That's a good and much handier thing for sharpening it when camping or fishing or whatever. Although this knife is not a modern high tech kind of knife, it is kind of cool, and If I order another it will be a bigger model as the number 8 size is a good size for a pocket knife but a little small for my big hands. I like it and will look forward to trying out some of their bigger models.

It's a vey handsome and sharp knife. Delivery was timely and convenient!

Well made knife with a great design.Love the handle and locking mechanism.Simple, lightweight and very functional.I will be trying other sizes.

I bought 3-4 of these. These are well made. The package says made in China and the actual blade says made in France. So I don't know where its actually made. These are very simple, cleverly made knives. They sharpen up nice, fit in your pocket nicely, look nice and make great gifts. Blade isn't real thick and the knife isn't bulky. Buy one.
