Super cute! Also very practical with the classic sharp edge of an Opinel. Bought as a gift and the recipient is really happy with it. Would recommend a bigger size for any regular outdoor use ;)

Great quality knife, as Opinel always are, and a steal at the price. Arrived quickly and securely. Many thanks!
If you are like me an expensive knife, pair of sunglasses, cuff links or handkerchief will be lost and never found within the first week of purchase.The Opinel Carbon No.05 costs very little almost guaranteeing it will be with you until the bitter end. While on your mortal coil you will have with Opinel a sharp, trusty and always useful pocket knife.Worth the trip to Kents of Ingelwood any time. And then check out their amazing shaving products.
This knife was bought for my wife who wanted to carry a small knife around (like me). It is rather small which is great, but unfortunately unlike other Opinel's; this one does not have a locking mechanism (i.e. twist the neck). That is the only reason it gets a 4 start. Obviously, better research on my end could have prevented this purchase and I may have gone up to number 6 which I believe does have the locking mechanism. I more than likely missed that information in the no.5 description, but all in all good little pocket knife, really small and handy, but was a bit disappointed about the lack of locking mechanism.
Perfect little multi purpose utility knife for my tramping kit. Strong enough to shave feather sticks but still dexterous enough for fine work. Weight is negligible.
good little folder. Could use a locking collar like the #6 and larger. Hard to sharpen but holds an edge well. Will be too small though for most folks.
Very useful small knife made to last for years.
Bought this wee knife as a small camp cooking tool and it doubles as a striker for my flint due to its carbon steel blade. Never been let down by Opinel so far.
