WOW. This is the single greatest knife that I've ever seen.

[@urbanknifeguy]

It is a beautiful knife!

[@jcam1776]

Gorgeous knife!!!

[@urbanknifeguy]

It is! 😁

[@butamini]

Bought a good one. And thanks for showing it to me.

[@urbanknifeguy]

Thank you!

[@jakedoesyoutube]

I want to get the knife you showed in the intro! It looks super easy to open and the lock is very appealing to me.

[@urbanknifeguy]

Look for Opinel knives. They come in many different sizes and wood handles.

[@simonh6371]

That Opinel is very nice, it's got an unusual handle. The Fontenille Pataud is really beautiful, I looked on their website and it's priced at almost 200 Euros so definitely a high quality collector's piece. I like your joke about your channel not being elegant and sophisticated but I'd say it is actually! Glad to hear you are not going to take it into the jungle but it's good that you will carry it from time to time.

[@urbanknifeguy]

Thanks for the kind words and sentiments. Yes, both French knives are very nice in their own way.
