The No.08 Carbon Steel Folding Knife from Opinel feels like a quiet nod to timeless simplicity in your pocket or kitchen drawer. Since Joseph Opinel dreamed it up back in 1890 in the French Alps, this iconic size has traveled with explorers, artists, farmers, and home cooks alike, proving itself as the perfect everyday companion.

We love how Opinel keeps the design pure: a razor-sharp XC90 carbon steel blade that takes an edge like nothing else and sharpens easily, paired with a smooth varnished beech wood handle that fits just right in hand. The Virobloc safety ring locks it open securely or closed for safe carrying, so you can slice tomatoes, prune herbs from the garden, or whittle a stick without a second thought.

At 3.28 inches of blade and just 1.6 ounces overall, it's light enough to forget it's there until you need it. A little care keeps that carbon blade performing beautifully wipe dry after use, oil occasionally and it develops a handsome patina over time. Grab one and let it become your go-to for all those small tasks that make cooking and living feel more connected.

  • Iconic No.08 size with 3.28-inch XC90 carbon steel blade for exceptional sharpness and easy sharpening
  • Virobloc rotating safety ring locks blade securely open or closed for safe, reliable use
  • Varnished beech wood handle offers comfortable grip and classic French elegance
  • Lightweight at 1.6 oz and compact overall length of 7.59 inches ideal for pocket, bag, or kitchen
  • Develops a natural patina with use; perfect for prep, gardening, or everyday adventures

Hand wash only. Do not immerse your knife in water, as this could warp the wooden handle. Do not wash the carbon blade by running it under water, simply wipe it down after use. If wet, immediately dry the carbon blade with a soft, dry towel. Lubricating the carbon blade with a food safe oil before closing the knife is recommended (this prevents oxidation). Over time, carbon steel can develop a patina and may possibly show some corrosion, depending on use.
