The Opinel knife is handy the round handle fits comfortably in the hand and the blade - in particular the form - is very well suited to cut mushrooms and also to clean it before, the foot of ceps gently freeing for example by sticking Ender Earth (makes one already in the forest, so the mushrooms during transport not more dirty. So you can clean behind the mushrooms with a minimum use of water and prevents the fungi thereby unnecessarily draw water). Unfortunately, the brush, which is indeed intended to clean, is a bit too soft, so I brush the mushrooms almost exclusively with the blade. Even the most typical for Opinel rotation lock to secure the blade is not entirely to my taste (not practical) on the other hand I do not need this setting at a mushroom knife also. Conclusion: The knife is worth its price.
