  • Old Bear from Antonini Knives - An Opinel challenger ?Never thought I would say that.
    Found this knife while searching for a recommendation from a Subscriber. Made in Italy. I am very impressed. Certainly a challenger of the Opinel for me.
    Thanks for watching as always

    Hi George, I’ve been watching your RUclips channel for a while now. I enjoy seeing your adventures and product reviews. Keep it up, you are fun to watch.
    FYI, I’ve been looking for a knife to throw in my Osprey daypack and your review of the Old Bear has sparked my interest enough to buy one.

      @2ndchancegeorge  2 года назад

      I carry my Opinel at work etc. But I have kinda abused it..lol. but it's still going. I do think I prefer the old bear but some people say the steel is not as good as the Opie. Thanks for watching and commenting 🙂

    George have you ever looked at the MAM knives made in Portugal? They are very similar to the Opinal's, they are cool they even have a blade lock model all in your budget

    Good knife George there isn’t much difference in shape but ! the locking mechanism is totally different a well made knife from Italy ...... I have one highly recommendable in my opinion, I skinned a muntjac deer with it no problem . Have a good day George , ps nice stick

    • @2ndchancegeorge
      @2ndchancegeorge  Год назад

    I know I’m 2 years too late for this video but do you still use this knife? How’s it holding up? Specifically the locking mechanism. I know that for the opinels, people have mentioned that the twist lock loosens over time but I don’t think I’ve seen and long term review of the antonini to determine if this is also an issue with this knife

    • @2ndchancegeorge
      @2ndchancegeorge  3 месяца назад

      It has held up well. The lock has loosened a bit. But not a big deal. It's a great knife. Thanks for watching 👍

  • @davidoerman5381
    @davidoerman5381 2 года назад +1

    The main difference is George is the opinel knife has an edge on both sides old bear only has Edge on one side

      Lol...nope from Zimbabwe but close enough thanks for watching

  • @daveyjones5702
    @daveyjones5702 6 месяцев назад

    i own both and have found the 2 to be very similar.
    i think the opinel is slightly better.
    the construction is more precise and holds up better over time.
    my old bear has loosened up over time to where locking the blade is no longer
    optional in open or closed position.

    • @2ndchancegeorge
      @2ndchancegeorge  6 месяцев назад

      I have not had that problem with the Old Bear, but to be honest I have not used it nearly as much as my Opinels. Which have as you said stood up great. Thanks for watching, and as always be safe out there.

    • @daveyjones5702
      @daveyjones5702 6 месяцев назад

      @@2ndchancegeorge i wouldn't go so far as to call it a problem, it's just falls short of the quality of opinels.
      all in all still a very nice knife that i would recommend.

    • @2ndchancegeorge
