Opinel is the best bang for buck work knife I can think of. I like them so much I got a carbon steel one, darkened the blade with cold blueing solution, made the handle grippier and painted it black too. Tactical mushroom picking 😎

Opinels are really nice

I have two I take on every holiday with me for cooking, one I use for veggies, one I use for meat. Whether it's camping or self-catering, I always have sharp cooking knives. Both carbon steel too, for that harder edge.

I use mine for cooking too sometimes. They are perfect for anything that doesn't involve brute force since carbon steel is a bit brittle. The blueing solution stopps them from rusting btw. Oil still doesn't hurt but you don't need to be as careful keeping them dry.
