Are the Opinel knives better than, say, Victorinox knives? Is it a retro thing or do they have better blades?
If not Opinel or Victorinox, what is a good pocketknife for casual and occasional use, no more than 3" long -- single blade is fine. I'm no connaisseur, obviously, but I'd like to have one. I've got a Victorinox Swiss model but wouldn't mind another one with more bulk devoted to the main blade and less to accessories.
