What is your experience with cheap knives from amazon or others? There are a lot of sub $50 knives there with mostly positive reviews. Are they actually good? Or do you have better cheap options that are not sponsored by amazon? I see brands on there like Lothar or Bergkvist. They actually have decent websites on their own, so I don’t know if they are actually that amazon trash or a decent budget brand.
Definitely get an Opinel.
The no 8 (blade is 8,5cm) used to be 8€, is now about 11,50€
They’re well made, no gimmicks, just a good steel (no rust or carbon) blade
an opinel is one of the cheapest knives you can find and it’s also a good knife.
cheap or not, why not consider buying from a knife shop instead of amazon? (which continent (or country if you like) are you on/in?)
