OPINEL №8 Beech (123080) Brown Multitool - Versatile and Reliable Tool for All Your Needs Review

Classic Opinel, always in the bag, always at hand, despite the fact that there is always some other folding knife in the pocket. Cuts thinly, any food is like butter for him. As a rule, sharpening is not required, only musat. Due to the construction it is very light. The most important thing is that it is cheap, it’s not a pity to lose it and it’s not scary to accidentally spoil it. In my opinion, this is a must have for anyone who loves knives.

Great knife for hiking, not big and light. Cuts well and sharpens easily. I immediately covered the handle with ship varnish so that it would not swell in dampness. Simple fixer. common on these knives. Sturdy wood is used for the handle.

Has pros: Well-known manufacturer. Comfortable round wooden handle. Has cons: On my copy, a new (out of the box) knife, the lock turns with great difficulty. Drying didn't help. Dumb in comparison with knives Morakniv, Ruike.

It holds sharpening well, cuts perfectly, the handle is comfortable. I consider N8 a pocket option, for a picnic or a hike you need at least N10, since the length of 8 is not enough to cut bread :(. Oh yes, I bought it on Ozo. E and is cheaper than I take it. I recommend the knife

A knife, just a knife. Well, a great example of why the classics are immortal. If you are tired of the pretentiousness of modern knives, then you are here. The only claim to the knife is the same traditional manufacturing techniques as he himself. Today it looks like some carelessness in processing and manufacturing, quite normal for handmade, but unexpected for a mass-produced product.

In 1985, the world's largest museum of decorative arts and design, the Victoria and Albert Museum in England, ranked the Opinel, along with a Porsche 911 and a Rolex watch, as one of the top 100 design items in the world. In 2022, the brand was included in the three-volume Phaidon Design Classics, an authoritative collection of design classics that includes 999 designs carefully selected by experts from different fields.

They gave me a knife, I didn’t even consider Opineli before. I am a fan of folding knives though. I liked the idea and quality, I switched to Opineli :) It is clear that the knife is not for power work due to the design features. But simple, there is nothing to break. Nice looking, nice to use. The result of the acquaintance was the purchase of Opinel No. 13 Giant !

Got pros: Good steel, comfortable grip, that's it with mushrooms. Cons below: The handle is branded, but a day in linseed oil corrects this shortcoming.

I love this company's knives. The most feminine knives in the world, I think. Very light, perfect for hiking. Natural handle material, it is warm even in winter! How it cuts food. if you've never cut with Opinel - find it and try it, you won't regret it! It is brought together thinly, if sharply sharpened, then no effort is needed, the tomato under it falls apart by itself! Cheese is very cool to cut them. Walk for mushrooms. In general, the most versatile knife, which, moreover, costs a penny.
