I'm going to get a No.12 and see if I can mod it down to a No.8 or 9 but with a slightly bigger handle (and obvs a thicker blade).
For the use case you've described secateurs would be better.
Whatever you get stainless makes sense. My preference is a folder so you can put it in your pocket when doing other things. Also practically I reckon it's going to be easier to hang safely in the shed.

I'm after a knife for using in the garden.
Something that can cut brambles, pruning a little, nothing to heavy duty.
Opinel?
