My partner asked me for a recommendation for a EDC because I own and care for my kitchen knives. But I know nothing about pocket knives, so I’m hoping you all can recommend something lest they walk out with a 8 inch chef’s knive peeking from their pocket.

I had a look here, but I just got lost in all those choices.

It doesn’t need to be super durable as I should be able to sharpen it for them, but it should be easy to handle. The purported usage is self defense, but I think it will mostly be used to do chore related tasks.

Any solid choices there?

EDIT: after the replies pushing back on using this type of tool for self defense, I’ve had a talk with my partner and went through the arguments here. They didn’t take much convincing that it was a bad idea. Thank you all for pointing it out!

    Thanks for reinforcing that point. I’ve discussed with them and edited the post to reflect this.

    That knife sits squarely within the budget that I have (around 80 euros), which is great.
