Opinel No. 8 VRN folding pocket knife

This Opinel No.8 knife is highly versatile, perfect for outdoor use, camping, DIY... 

This pocket knife features a carbon steel blade in the distinctive Yatagan shape.

This blade, characteristic of Opinel knives, has a convex profile and curves towards the tip, ensuring excellent cutting performance.

The carbon steel used for this blade is an unalloyed steel with a high carbon content, providing excellent edge retention, high wear resistance and easy resharpening.

However, carbon steel has low corrosion resistance and requires care: do not leave the knife in damp conditions or put it in the dishwasher.

Wipe the blade with a cloth after use and grease it regularly.

If you are looking for an Opinel knife of the same size with a stainless steel blade, we offer the Opinel No.8 VRI.

This Opinel No.8 knife also features a Virobloc rotating safety collar.

This lets you lock the blade both open and closed.

Finally, the handle is carved from beech wood sourced from France Arbre.

A coat of orange-tinted varnish protects the whole handle.
