5Opinel knives are fantastic, the Dog Knife is now a “Member” of my Opinel collection.
Many years ago I heard someone say, “If you ain’t got an Opinel you ain’t got a hope in Hell”.Albert Morton

5I purchased this as a gift for my sons partner, little did I know he already has this same knife and it’s his favourite, he has had it for years and the blade is only about a third of the size due to use. I had looked at a variety of knives but chose this, I wouldn’t of believed I’d picked what was a tried and tested favourite.Elaine Cameron

3Had ordered this knife as part of a present for my husband. Was really pleased with the quality of the knife and the engraving on the blade. The knife was delivered very quickly. The site said that a sharpening tool would also be included, but, unfortunately, this wasn’t so. That’s why this order was rated “Acceptable” instead of “Very Good”.Deborah Clarke

5The knife is exceptionally sharp, which is what you'd expect, it being and opinel, the hunting design on the handle is very nice, but I'll be interested to see how it holds up in the field being used, I chose to have the blade engraved with the names of my two dogs, the engraving is crisp, clear and deep enough to last the life of the knife, overall I'm very pleased with both the knive and the service received from where it was purchasedBruce
