Can we not all get together and try to overturn the precedent against locking blade knives? It's a decision that makes absolutely no sense at all, and means people are at risk of seriously hurting themselves because it's harder to have a safe knife for the job. And it's not even a law, it's just a precedent set in court. And what's more, it does absolutely nothing to curb knife crime, since no one is going around stabbing people with a 3in or less locking blade pocket knife!

that is what these knives are about, most of the opinels sold are gardening knives, and picnic/cheese knives, I have a couple, no7 and and no10, but I keep at home, because they are really cumbersome to open, build quality is not great, but for the price... the blade is very sharp, with good sharpness retention, but overall it;'s cheaply made and I would not rely on it outside the house to even slice an apple. Because I would probably break 3 fingernails trying to pry it open.

Opinel uses Swedish steel Sandvik 12C27, which is the same as in stainless Morakniv models. It holds an edge quite well, especially if sharpened at 25° per side. But I keep mine at stock 20° and it still holds. Also, AFAIK, you can get a №6 Opinel, remove the locking ring and it will still be legal in UK.

But I liked the Tern so much - prior to that I'd only used two handed opening knives - that I went on to buy the Spyderco Urban which is better than both I believe and I now carry that most days.

Throughout the early years of my almost eight-decades-long life I usually carried many different non-locking folding pocket knives, and never (seriously) hurt myself with any of them. However after using my first locking-blade knife, I ONLY use and carry those now, because they are arguably safer and always feel more secure in use. I absolutely understand the fact that there are legal prohibitions against carrying them in many jurisdictions throughout the world, but I think those are all examples of legislation (or regulation) gone insane. Limiting blade length make much more sense, but even the usually legal three-inch models are sufficient to severely injure or kill people, so perhaps that kind of prohibition also is ridiculous. That said, I would not care to find myself in a crowd anywhere in the world where a lot of people are carrying butcher knives. Given the concealed-carry gun laws in most U.S. states where I live, I suppose that concern is also very silly of me. We live in a world gone mad, but I suppose that first happened eons ago.

Although locking as stated it would fall under good reason to carry when going too and from allotment also the lock is security for doing heavy work.

Also something like the very budget friendly UK legal Rough Ryder Denim Micarta Folding Pocket Knife RR2181 Wharncliffe. As for Opinel - I have a strong dislike of a French gardening tool which doubles as kitchen knife for cutting garlic & stinky French cheese being described as a pocket knife for EDC when it belongs in the garden shed or kitchen cutlery draw. I understand the insane legal limitations in the UK have made it a Captive Market for knives that would not get a 2nd look in the rest of the world & if I was still resident in the UK I would be carrying a range of Victorinox pocket knives for EDC & certain other slip joints like the RR2181

One thing about the Byrd Tern's choil that is better than other slip joints with the choil is that it stays protective even if the knife starts to fold. On the boker for example when the knife starts to fold the choil gets invaded by the frame of the handle and pushes your finger out of safety - same with other knives. With the Tern you finger can stay safely in the choil even to the point of full closure
