Awesome knife. Blade is over 3 inches. Easy to get razor sharp and the wood handle looks and feels great. A little bulky in my pocket, but for the quality and price, I'll sacrifice the extra space.
Opinels have been my more heavy duty, goto knives since I was a kid, going to camp. Their lock ring make them relatively safe where other folding knives (used to) offer less reliable locking features. In my life time I only had one break on me, my bad to lend it to someone who couldn't handle his Opinel.
To this day I still rock one for when a situation calls for an all knife workhorse.
My grandfather always had an Opinel on him and I followed suit. Not fancy or feature-rich but rock solid and reliable (and non-threatening to security and casual observers.)
