Opinel No.9 Stainless Steel Knife

Some jobs call for more than a pocket knife, and that's where the Opinel No.9 earns its keep. This is a project knife through and through, sized up for bushcraft, hunting, and the bigger tasks around camp that a smaller blade just can't muscle through. The stainless steel Yatagan blade holds an edge well and shrugs off moisture and rust, so you can baton kindling, clean a trout, or whittle a tent stake without babying it. The beech wood handle fills the hand with a warm, natural grip that only gets better with use, and the Virobloc safety ring locks the blade open for confident cutting or closed for safe transport in your pack. Whether you're setting up a backcountry camp or just tackling chores that need a dependable, do-it-all tool, the No.9 brings over a century of French knifemaking know-how to the job.
