Peasant knives. Knives that are simple, relatively inexpensive and just plain work!

What are your favorite peasant knives?

Some examples of my favorites are the Douk douk, Opinel #8 and Victorinox SAK (i usually carry a Climber model.)

Honestly, putting ANY knife in my hands makes it a “peasant’s” knife, but I think my favorites are the Pallares Solsona ones:

These are the only knives I have encountered which cut better than an Opinel.
The olive wood handle is one I made. They do make wooden-handled ones, but not in the larger size I prefer, I don’t believe.

I have one like the one on the left. It’s nice and light feeling in the pocket and had a nice strong spring to hold it open.
