## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great fillet knife!
*by G***. on May 29, 2025*

High quality, like all the other opinels I have!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My New Pocket Steak Knife
*by C***® on September 26, 2024*

Great knife. Fine quality throughout. I've always carried a fine blade folding knife to use when I'm eating out. This knife looks nice and is very light weight. I will carry it often.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Old Time Goodness
*by G***R on December 5, 2024*

If you like old world tools, this is a keeper. The design is over 100 years old. I bought the stainless version, but they also have carbon steel versions of these knives. They are very sharp and suited best for lighter duty. The twist lock works well, to lock the blade open or closed. It is not an expensive knife or a quick deployment knife, however, it is a great tool for your tackle box or tool box. The handle is comfortable and the blade will get the job done.
