The Opinel No.08 Black Oak: A Pocket Knife Masterpiece
The iconic No.08 pocket knife from Opinel has graced countless museums, books, and galleries worldwide, earning its reputation as the flagship model in the brand's collection. Compact and ergonomic, this knife features a 3 ¼ inch black stainless steel blade and an oak wood handle that can withstand years of use.
Designed and perfected over generations, the blade's cutting quality is maximized, ensuring it remains easy to sharpen even after extensive use. Whether in the garden, at the dinner table, or on your next adventure, this versatile tool is a must-have, easy to keep in your pocket, purse, or toolbox.
The knife's simplicity and sustainable wooden handle make it lightweight, while the patented VIROBLOC locking mechanism keeps it safely closed in your pocket and locked open during use. Composed of just five elements - the blade, wooden handle, fixed ferrule, rivet, and rotating VIROBLOC locking ring (added in 1955 to sizes No.06 and above) - the Opinel folding knife is both smart and straightforward.
Caring for the knife is essential, as Opinel's wooden-handle knives should not be washed in the dishwasher. Heat and moisture can cause the wood to swell, making the knife difficult to open. Opinel recommends carefully hand-washing and immediately drying the blade with a soft, dry towel. Lubricating the blade with cooking oil before closing the knife is also recommended to prevent oxidation.
Rooted in history and a commitment to craftsmanship, the Opinel family has been manufacturing their iconic knives in the Savoie region of France since 1890. Each year, their team of 150 employees produces over 5 million knives, ranging from outdoor tools to kitchen knives, all while honoring Joseph Opinel's focus on quality and simplicity.
The Opinel No.08 Black Oak is a true classic, a pocket knife that has stood the test of time and remains a beloved choice for artists, explorers, and everyday users alike. Its timeless design, robust construction, and practical functionality make it an essential tool that will serve you well for years to come.
