I love my Opinels. They're very affordable and for that reason I've bought multiple over the past few years.
I keep one in my back pocket at all times. Sometimes they slip out if you're sitting down on a couch or something so it helps to be aware of this or have a fat ass.
They are good for everything. They also look beautiful. They attain a nice patina after a while.
When I first had one, I sliced up some veggies while /out/ and forgot to clean it off. Gimme a break, I was a few drinks down whiskey river.
But in the morning, the blade had a bunch of rust on it. I mistakenly thought it was useless after this. Don't ask why, i can't really remember myself. All you need to do if this happens is gently remove the rust with fine grit sandpaper. I'm sure a good brillo pad would do the job too.
Anyway, 10/10 would recommend
