    Your new best friend

    Opinel knives have been around for well over 100 years. What makes them so special? Well, the thin blade make slicing a joy not a chore, and it also make the knife easy to sharpen. If a buddy accidentally walk off with the Opinel in his pocket or pack, it is not going to take next month's wine allowance to replace it with new one. The lock is simple and secure. It comes in many sizes for different sized hands. The innovative sheath/pouch is comfortable to wear and conforms to whatever seating is available. If I had a dime for every European Scout I've seen with an Opinel, I could pay for your dinner tonight. Instead of using a sheath/pouch, they often drill a hole in the handle (some Opinels come pre-drilled), pass a cord through the hole, and carry the knife around their necks. There may still be available an official Scout Opinel. The new sheath/pouch can easily be worn around the neck by running a cord through standard issue caribiner or belt loop it comes with. I especially like the Opinel for cooking duties. It takes a good edge, the blade is not going to come back and bite me, and it is easy to clean. I have bought two Opinels in the past two months or so: one is seeing duty in Guatemala and the other is being used by a Scout in Mexico. It is a great little knife!

  • Top critical review

    Knife is fine, the sheath is flimsy plastic.

    I have many Opinels and this one is typical, a great knife for the money. The sheath offered with this one adds $8-10 to the price of the knife. It is thin plastic and will not last long, certainly not as long as the knife. Opinel doesn’t need to resort to cheap tricks to sell their knives! I was very disappointed.

  • Perfect knife.

    I love this knife and holder. It is the perfect knife for daily tasks around the home and garden. It's sharp and easy to open and close. I think it's better for use around the house and garden, as opposed to carrying out to work, etc. Highly recommend. Also makes a great gift!

  • Nice wood handle

    Knife was not of great quality as picture would lead to believe. Sharp and the sheath was below standard- sorry but after buying quality knives I was disappointed

  • Lean on this Knife and give it Good Faith

    Since youth long ago, I found this Knife to be a cut above most other comparable locking folders. It has superb Craftsmanship and overall is "a don't leave home or go to work without it" kind of Knife. These are resilient and hold an edge well. The Case adds class to an already sophisticated design. I Gave this knife to my Son for Christmas.

  • Opinel knife set

    Knife is very lightweight even with the sheath. Steel is flexible and sharp and is great for kitchen work or filet,vegetable cutting. Like I said the steel is flexible so it’s real good for filets and kitchen work. Sheath is lightweight also and carry on a belt. I recommend, good knife at a decent price with the gift box.

  • Nice gift.

    A nice gift. The knife is as wonderful as all the Opinel knives I have used. Wish the sheath was of real leather though.
