The Petzl one is a fair bit cheaper than the Opinel.
I hadn't spotted that. Its a compelling option, even if the blade is lightly serrated. just need to figure out if the blade is a decent enough size. That said, 45g is incredibly light so maybe I don't want a longer blade if I can avoid it.

It looks like a really good option. Well designed, can be used with gloves. Plus it's inexpensive, and the non-serrated half looks to be a reasonable length.
Very much personal opinion and all, but based on your brief I wouldn't go opinel nor fixed blade.

The Petzl one is a fair bit cheaper than the Opinel. Personally I'd want something less fiddly to open and lock than the opinel.
