One of the simpler Opinel models, but there is nothing to complain about. Solid workmanship, a comfortable grip, and a very good price at the same time. So far, it has never let me down. I recommend it!

A very nice knife, extremely sharp, with an intuitive locking mechanism. An interesting alternative to folding knives and pocket knives; it definitely feels safer knowing that the blade will not open by itself in your pocket, and once opened, that it will not close on your fingers. It serves well and performs quite nicely during small tasks. It also works well as a good gift.

Opinel No.9. Nice knife, fits well in the hand. Very sharp straight from the factory. The blade is very well made. Excellent steel that keeps its edge for a very long time. You can buy it without hesitation. The size is ideal for a camping kitchen.

A beautiful knife from this renowned French manufacturer, the walnut wood really makes a difference here. In my opinion, it's worth paying extra compared to the basic version. It doesn't absorb water, I recommend it both as an EDC and for your collection. Buying these knives is addictive. I recommend it and best regards.

The entire de luxe series (not beech wood) is great, each one unique in its own way. Olive wood—according to forums, it absorbs water the least, and I’d add that it probably has the most compact wood structure overall and is the smoothest, apart from classic beech, allowing for precise finishing both at the Opinel factory and when customizing it yourself :)

Good both as a gift, because it comes in a nice, simply styled, minimalist box with a window, and because it is beautiful - oak wood with noble irregularities - as well as for use - because no. 9 is already a "piece of Opinel" and will easily handle a larger loaf of bread, etc.

The olive wood is very OK, especially if you want wood with a compact, smooth structure. Apparently, it swells the least from water – that's what they say, although I generally haven't had this problem with Opinels :). Opinel number 9 is already quite a knife, sufficient for most kitchen and holiday tasks – and it still doesn’t take up too much space in a bag or jacket pocket.

Opinel 9 is a classic in the 'workhorse' group – still pocket-sized, but with a very practical blade – for mushrooms, camping or holiday cooking, etc. Compared to the Carbon No. 9, you don't have to take such great care of the Inox version in terms of protecting the blade from leftover moisture.

Beautiful, simple knife with history. Model no. 9 offers much more versatility than the smaller models. Factory-sharpened well. The blade folding mechanism may not be perfectly fitted, but that adds to its charm.

I have a few of these knives in my collection, I’ve also given many to friends and everyone is satisfied. Simple design, very well-thought-out locking mechanism, the blade is easy to sharpen, and timeless looks—those are this product's features. I RECOMMEND it.

Review for model:

For many years, I used the No.7 inox, beech Opinel for trekking as my basic knife. Sometimes it lacked a bit of length for kitchen work. However, as an EDC, it's probably the best Opinel. I lost it a week ago. I spent a lot of time considering what to get next: 8 or 9? I chose 9, but with an olive wood handle, purely for aesthetics. The knife really looks fantastic. I have no complaints about the beech handle. The olive wood seems a bit too slippery to me. Remember, Opinels are quite sharp, and the handle shape—tapering towards the blade and lacking a guard—requires attention at work, so you don't cut your hand. Beech sits more securely in the hand. The 9 is OK; it’s actually quite a large knife. But not as big as the 10, which I've owned for years and think is huge—too big for most light tasks. However, if I had to choose now, I’d go for the beech version, not the olive, due to the lower slipperiness of the wood. And probably size 8—more convenient to carry, with practically the same blade functionality.

A product of the highest quality. At first glance, the price may seem high, but you should not skimp on such a high-quality product. As for the shipping and the Militaria.pl store: the products were as described, and everything was carefully packed and delivered on time.

Nice, handy knife. Good-looking and well-made, bought especially as a 'kitchen' knife for the outdoors. Sharp and wide enough, perfect for preparing food in the field or slicing cooked meat, does it without issue. I also recommend it as a more universal knife for various uses.
