You know to make it one handed punch the pin out sand the knife where the pin was a bit 150 grit sandpaper about 10 times put it back together presto one handed.
I've been using an Opinel No. 9 carbon steel for ages, and it has never let me down. It's easy to keep razor-sharp and a little drop of oil now and then will keep corrosion at bay.
9 and 10 are my favorites. Hi from France.
I love my Opinel no 9. I work in a kitchen and I use it often for slicing tomatoes and breaking down cardboard. Beautiful simple edc knife
My Grandad carried one of these for years that why I bought one great video I enjoy hearing about this knife
I take my carbon steel ones and plunge them into a lemon for a while to set up the steel. Works great. I love these knives.
One thing i especially like about the carbon opinels in particular is the massive shower of sparks that the sharp corner on the spine will throw off of a ferro rod. It's particularly convenient that this can be accomplished with the blade locked closed.
Nice blade! simple design and old school. So many uses. Great tool... thanks for sharing!
Pinetree Line Outdoors thanks for watching!
Got mine while in the military in carbon steel. Everyone wondered why I was carrying a fugly knife. I have had and been carrying the same knife off and on since 1994. Blade is well tarnished and I soaked the whole knife in wood sealer when I got it, never had trouble opening it. Matter of fact I just took it out of hot water after soaking for one hour to clean it.
This is a great food prep knife for the camp.
Yes sir my friend this knife can definitely handle a lot of task put before it for sure. And for sharpness it is right there ready to get the job done. Thanks for sharing brother.
Yes sir, sometimes a knife just needs to be a knife and nothing more, and this one will do the job for sure! Thanks for stopping by!
I have to disagree on the 2 hand open--I have been opening mine with one hand since I started carrying one in 1990--the fact I learned to open. the main blade on a Scout knife and a Schrader lock back made it easier
I have a #10 carbone and I really dig it! I am going to start collecting them!
I am going to start collecting them to .
Opinels are great knives. Very affordable. By the way you can take the lock off if you need to due to laws. It just becomes a true friction folder at that point. Just a tip. Great video! Subbed.
You can open them with one hand, if you really needed to, but the method is a bit awkward, and repeatedly using this method will ding up the knife a bit. Basically, you hold the closed knife up near the lock, with the blade/groove on bottom, making sure your hand and fingers are not covering the blade/groove, and the tip of the blade facing away from you. Then, tap the end of the handle, the little tail (where the tip of the blade is nested) on a hard surface with just enough force that the blade will come out of the handle just a bit. Then, you simply place the tip of the blade on the most suitable surface, and pull back on the handle, which will lever the blade out and into the open position. At that point, it’s a simple matter to lock it one-handed.
If the handle has swelled from moisture/humidity, I’m guessing this method may not work. But, otherwise, it’s good to know how, for those “just in case” moments in life.
I read somewhere, or maybe saw it in a video, that this was how French farmers would open them one-handed. You can see why it would start to ding up the handle and blade. I’ve tried it, and it works. In a pinch, I’d certainly not hesitate to open it this way. But unless I had a damn good reason for beating on my knife, I’ll stick to using my free hand to open the blade.
if the handle is reasonably dry, the tap isn't needed--just pinch the blade and open it enough to catch the fishtail on your pants to open the rest of the way
Got a No8 with an olive wood handle because I heard olive wood is extremely tough (also oh so pretty!).
Those however only come with stainless steel blades but it is quality (Sandvik 12C27M) with opinel’s great finish.
I have seen some people remove the pin - perhaps you could swap the blades
I was looking for an opinel long time but i can't be sure wich number pick up, but now i am clear. Number 9 will be. Greetings from Chile
Alejandro Malbrán I’m glad we could help you make your decision, I’m sure you will like this knife. Thanks for watching!
Great Vid Thank You.
With some practice you can open it one hand in a pinch definitely not easy though
Always thought these knives are perfect to keep in cook kits or to keep in a pouch with your canteen for food or fire preps.
Prepare Learn Survive! Agreed!
The wood handle can be difficult to clean. Maybe go with the outdoor version, a bit thicker steel (sadly partially serrated) but otherwise just as good.
I think no.9 it good size.
4:14 Hi man, never let the blade and tip of knife powerfully moving toward your body.
Just ordered it a couple days ago for $16.00
I first. Saw. Opinel. My. Friend. Had one. He. Was. Always. Cleaning blade. With. Steel. Wool. After. We. Finished. Hunting. Cleaning. Rabbits. Carbon. Blade. Very. Sharp. !!
4:14 Blades towards your hands? Why?
My dad has had the same opined for the past 13 years
He has used it every day in the building trade
Only thing that has broke on it was the very end of the tip
And that’s because it hit a rock when being thrown
Opinel find ich auch but und umgebaut noch besser.⭐❄🌟🎄
I think you like Michael Scofield Prison Break.
A lot of time it is the laws that make a knife popular. Like our own folders with belt clips. The laws used to allow any state to carry.
In Europe Shepherds and Ranchers used to carry Cememir Shepherd Folding Knife. I do like the handle.
In New Zealand Svord Peasant Knife from New Zealand not sure of the whole story on that. But great blade.
This is what is generaly known as a Corsican Shepherd Knife

The Opinel #8 is a fabulous knife. This is what we did with ours: ruclips.net/video/8ZPyxeuZVO4/видео.html
If laws are a problem get the Douk Douk
Blade is too thin
depends what you need it for, this is a general use knife and nothing more.
I have been using them for the last 30+ years and during that time I tried many thick blade knives which were not practical. If you want to pry use a shovel or pry bar, if you want to baton use an axe :)
