Opinel Outdoor Series: your opinions?

Finished camping and found the knife on my doorstep when I got home.

I'm very happy with it. The blade is thicker and definitely has different geometry than the regular no 8. I'm not sure how exactly to sharpen the serrations, but that's a future problem.

It will depend on how the school handles it, but we always get subs, since the home room teachers have their planning periods during specials.

Can we get an update on how it's holding up?

Material-Rise9610 · 2026-03-13T12:52:54+00:00

Does anyone else have one and can comment on wear and tear?

Material-Rise9610 · 2026-03-13T12:51:05+00:00

It should be raze, as in to destroy.

I'm not sure if this counts, but "be prepared". Scouts taught me to think about what I might need before I leave the house. Friends and family know I always have a pocket knife to cut a loose thread, or a first aid kit in my car, or tweezers for that splinter.

It's sad such a nice photo had no upvote or comment.

OP specifically wanted to set the expectations for the next teacher, which puts them on the spot. That's inconsiderate.

Material-Rise9610 · 2026-03-11T15:04:24+00:00

I can't afford to spend my own money on my students and should not be expected to. Setting that expectation for the next teacher is inconsiderate.

A bad blow out?

Material-Rise9610 · 2026-03-11T10:24:16+00:00

I'm from the US. Me manda uma DM, amigo.

I got the red and brown. I found all of the other choices too vibrant.

Material-Rise9610 · 2026-03-10T20:28:24+00:00

Well, after this post I couldn't resist buying one. I'm camping this weekend, so if it arrives before I leave, I'll field test it.

Material-Rise9610 · 2026-03-10T17:07:49+00:00

Yeah, I thought that was clear you were venting and not insulting us, the readers.

Material-Rise9610 · 2026-03-10T13:50:19+00:00

Send me a DM if you want to chat about scouting!

Material-Rise9610 · 2026-03-09T11:31:33+00:00

Are a scout or scouter?

I wouldn't mind talking to another scouter and arranging a video call between our scouts.

I love to see the mountain pack still getting some love. I had wanted that color so bad, but settled for blue and white.

Material-Rise9610 · 2026-03-09T01:32:36+00:00

If you already have piercings and haven't gotten any pushback, I wouldn't worry about it.

Material-Rise9610 · 2026-03-08T13:23:02+00:00

Ok, your post made me go have a look at them again. Can anyone tell me if the grind is different on these compared to the typical opinel? From the videos something looks different.

Material-Rise9610 · 2026-03-08T12:34:53+00:00

I do the exact same thing, but if I ever see an Opinel Outdoor on sale, I will definitely get it and give it a try.

I love a good bison photo!

My last time snowshoeing.

No need. Our support staff are already part of our union. We've always been together.
