    I’ve had an Opinel Carbon at the lower end of the spectrum and a Leatherman Wave at the higher end. Both under 100 bucks and both fantastic in their own right.

      I bought an Opinel Carbon just last week. I got the size 9. It lives in my work laptop bag and comes with me every day. I also got the Opinel non-Carbon (stainless?) size 7 for my wife, and she has been using it a lot to open packages, food cartons, etc. Its handy just to have a sharp knife at hand when you need it. The Opinel models are very good for the price.

        They’re excellent for the price. I bought one originally to harvest veggies and mushrooms, but now I carry it everyday.

      The Leatherman isn’t under 100 bucks, at least not in the Netherlands. My Wave + was 150 bucks. Still massively worth it, though.

        In the US it’s on sale for $99.95 on the Leatherman website. I’d still pay $150 though because it how useful it is.
