Opinel No.8 Stainless Steel Knife

Slip the Opinel No.8 Stainless Steel Knife into your pocket and you're carrying a piece of history that still earns its keep every day. This is the size that made Opinel a household name back in 1890, and it remains the sweet spot for camp cooking, whittling kindling, trimming rope, or just opening the bag of trail mix at the summit. The Yatagan-shaped stainless steel blade holds a keen edge and shrugs off rust, so it stays ready whether it lives in a tackle box, a glovebox, or a jacket pocket all season long. The beechwood handle warms up in your hand and never feels slick, even with wet or gloved fingers, and the Virobloc safety ring locks the blade open while you work and locks it shut when it's time to stash it away. Simple, honest, and built the same way it has been for generations, this is the knife you reach for without thinking twice.
