OPINEL  N°8 Olive Wood with Sheath

A modern version of the classic Opinel No8 Folding Knife features a 8.5cm stainless steel blade and beautiful olive-wood handle. Perfect for camping, hiking or any outdoor activity.

Blade length

8.5 cm

Sandvik stainless steel

We use Sandvik 12C27 modified stainless steel. It is anti-corrosive thanks to the addition of chrome and requires no special maintenance. Its carbon content of at least 0.40% gives excellent cutting edge.

Mirror-finish blade

Double polish for a mirror effect

Handle

Olive - The mythical tree of the Mediterranean.This hard wood has a yellow to orange appearance and has a dense and often tortuous veining. Soft to the touch it maintains a nice polish.

Safety ring

Invented by Marcel Opinel in 1955, the Virobloc safety ring is fitted to all folding knives from the N° 06. Cut out of stainless steel, the Virobloc has two sections, one fixed and one sliding. In addition to locking the blade open (safety in use), it is now possible to lock the blade closed (safety in transport).
