No. 08 Carbon
10,50 €
Iconic carbon steel pocket knife, 8.5 cm blade. Ideal size, an absolute classic.
Description
Does Opinel need any introduction? The original pocket knife.
The one we were all given as children. The first things we made in the woods (bows, arrows, spears...), the first picnics, the first walks, and still with us years later.
The one we enjoy passing on in turn...
A handsome object: simple, affordable and terrifically effective. Made in the heart of the Alps, in Chambéry, for over 130 years!
The Opinel No. 08 Carbon has the safety ring. You turn the collar at the end of the handle to lock the blade open.
This is the star size at Opinel, the benchmark "made in France" knife.
It is a very good choice as an everyday utility knife. For eating, odd jobs, heading into the woods...
It cuts excellently and sits very well in the hand thanks to its beech handle and that shape unique to Opinel.
Design and effectiveness!
We have chosen the models with a carbon steel blade, the historic Opinel steel.
An exceptional edge and easy sharpening are what made the brand famous worldwide.
You will need to dry and oil the blade after every use, though, to avoid any risk of corrosion.
