Opinel Garden

Posted by John on 22nd Aug 2020

A very nice knife for less than ten pounds. Great blade length and shape and a lovely Beech wood handle, with a light varnish finish at 41 g and with the slim curved design it slips into your pocket.

Thank you HH for an excellent service.

Posted by Ruukuu on 8th Jul 2020

An Opinel doesn't really need a review....same as any Victorinox. But here goes anyway.

1.... its cheap
2.... its light
3.... its well made
4.... its sharp
5.... its infinitely customisable just like all Opinels
6.... Heinnie will post it you quick as always.

In the end its an Opinel. Just buy it. You cannot go wrong imho.

Very happy!

I was surprised at how light, how sharp and ergonomic this knife was. Very sharp otb, the stainless blade is very 'slicey' making ideal not only for weeding, pruning and taking cuttings, but for general food preparation for picnics or around camp. I can't fault it for what I paid and even the cheapest delivery got it to me in two short days. Impressed again at HH service and thankful I found what I hope is a really solid, yet inexpensive father's day present.

Good for garden, homes...

Posted by Stevo on 30th Jul 2018

Mine came dull at the tip. Maybe so it can be used for small digging jobs in the garden? Just a guess; normally an Opinel needs only a light sharpen and strop when new. This one took some work to get it sharp enough for woodcarving, to shape a kitchen spoon in beech.

Good size for food prep, and easy to clean up after use, indoors or out. Sandvic makes excellent stainless, so no complaints. Nice and light in pocket or tool bag. Very easy to open, even with gloves on.

Tried and tested design, comfortable to use, readily available, modest price - what could be better?

Only legendary service and delivery from HH! Cheers!

a simple, solid little knife

Posted by diymr on 17th Jul 2017

i've owned several Opinel knives over the years, all carbon steel blades. this is my first stainless Opinel and i like it! i use it for eating on hikes and hill walks and the stainless is a nice thing to have: doesn't impart that "steel" flavour to food and stays pretty with a little basic care. Opinel carbon steel is famous for taking an excellent edge and many folks diss the stainless blades for not being as good. so far i'm not seeing the justification for that accusation -- was sharp out of the box and still is -- but time will tell.

Finess.

This particular Opinel is very suited to finer work. The handle and blade shape lends itself to carving, food preparation and cuts that require blade up use.
The inox steel takes a good edge and you do not have the concerns (Tetanus) that carbon brings .
