  I'm biased to Opinel, growing up in Europe and knowing them for years. Super excited they are now available in the US. Opinel is famous for it's incredible sharpness - and this kid's knife is no exception. It's a pocket knife that will easily slice tomatoes! It's NOT a knife to mess around with. When he was young, my brother cut himself in the leg with an Opinel and his skin popped open like a sausage. Clean cut... but... you know :) it's not a knife to whittle with carelessly!SO, all this to say. The knife is amazing. It does have a rounded tip, so there is not a great stabbing danger. The blade locks perfectly with Opinel's twist mechanism. It's just... sharp as heck. Which is great for a knife - just be careful and supervise your kid.

  The knife is lighter in weight than I was expecting because I'm used to larger knives that are all metal. The body of this one is lighter weight wood (not flimsy, just light) and the blade is thin (again, not flimsy) so it won't drag your pocket down when you carry it. You could probably carry it in a shirt pocket, but you'd probably lose it that way.As advertised, there is no point -- it has a rounded end -- so it's not a stabby knife, it's a slicey knife, which is what it's designed for: cutting apples, oranges, sandwiches, etc. at a picnic, or the like. And as mentioned in the headline, the blade is very sharp (which is what you want in a knife), and I found that out on accident when washing it before using it.The locking mechanism is pretty simple: turn the locking ring to unlock it, pull the blade out, and turn the ring back to lock the blade open.I bought it to use as a non-scary looking pocket knife because it has no point on it and it will still cut things. It's also not too small or too large; just the right size for me.

  This is a great knife for a beginner (with adult supervision). The knife does not have a sharp end, and seems to do well to peel park from sticks and to whittle down the stick into a point. The knife does not have a lock open, so that is something that you need to be aware of when using. As the parent, I tried it too, and had it close on me a couple times when I bumped the stick. We had our 7 year old use it with cut proof gloves the first few times until she got the hang of it.

  This knife was easy to open and close with just enough resistance to make it safe for them to open and close. The blade was nice and sharp and has sharpened well also
