Whatever the case, you’ll be glad to have this French-made folding knife in your pocket. At just 1.5 ounces, it’s perfectly portable—and with a 3.25-inch carbon-infused stainless-steel blade, it packs a real punch, too. See the wooden handle? It’s tapered just right to provide an easy-breezy grip. Fun fact: This wonder comes from Opinel, who’s been crafting travel-ready knives since 1890.
