Beat the Icon: Opinel vs. Alternatives

In 1890, Joseph Opinel unveiled the no.08 pocket knife, and it was so good that it has remained virtually unchanged since. Can any of these contenders beat it? https://kcoti.com/3Il8CN5

Today, the Opinel folding knife is made in several sizes. Some include a locking ring that debuted in the 1950’s, but they all boast insanely comfortable handles and a complete dedication to slicing prowess. Here we take a look at other “primitive” knives as well as the best the modern production world has to offer to see if any of the competitors can do what an Opinel does, but better.
