Personally something a bit more "timeless" similar to an Opinel or anything else really simple like that would be my go to for a gift like that. As nice as those both are, they're both quite modern looking and I don't know how well they'll age. I'd want to get something that'll still be getting used regularly in 20/30/50 years because it's a classic design.

Ah yes, it'd be rude not to for research purposes! What about something really simple and classic like a standard lamb foot type thing? I've got one that was my dad's and it's aged really nicely as well.
