I have handled this one few times and am going to buy it.Any pros and cons on this knife.Love simple blade shape,handle,and of course its Opinel quality.Will mount a clip on it,and carry it as edc,food cutting blade.
 
I recommend it, I have opinel 6,7 and 8 also but by far use the garden 8 the most. It is a easy carry and I like it for most kitchen tasks. The only issue is the same with any opinel is just keep the wood at the pivot dry and lubed to keep it moving freely.
 
I reground mine into a clip point. I like it better that way, but I've never cared much for spear points. YMMV.
