What a great little knife!

I've been hearing about these knives for years and sort of threw this one onto my order just to see. I wasn't expecting a lot but I have to say I'm impressed. The blade is super thin and really good at slicing. The day I got this I needed to slice some roma tomatoes so I grabbed this just to see how it did and I'd say it sliced better than my actual kitchen knife. The blade is super sharp and thin and cut really thin slices of tomato super easy. This has now become my "desk knife" and lives there for every day use. I liked it so much I'm going to buy a Number 12 just to keep in the kitchen!

Gentleman's steak knife

My review is based only on using the knife for this purpose alone. I hate the dull, serrated junk steakhouses give you that rips and ruins the expensive cut of meat you pay for as well as your eating experience. I use these as a gentleman's steak knife option instead. Cheap, sharp, stainless, slicey, and won't scare the snowflakey waiter or waitress as it looks like it belongs on the table and they don't even notice it. So cheap I keep several around.

Simple goodness.

Good general purpose knife for edc tasks. Blade locks up very well with no blade play. Takes a very keen edge with little effort. Very happy.

Cons: Handle Material

simple

Good knife for simple tasks. The blade is thin so it's good for food preparation or similar. Locking mechanism locks open or closed.

Excellence you can carry in your pocket.

I have carried Opinel knives since the middle 1970's, and love the simplicity, the sharpness, and the sheer beauty of these knives both in carbon and INOX iterations. As I type this review, there is a #8 with the lovely olive wood handle on my desk, a beechwood model in my automobile glove box, and one in my EDC bag. Really, folks, say "oui" and get the longest-lived pocket folding knife you will ever own, for a price-point anyone can afford. Beauty, function, and a 'best-buy' all in one.
