Description / Opinel No.8 Locking Stainless Steel Knife (8.5cm) Oak

When camp cooking or a woodland task calls for a compact cutting tool, the Opinel No.8 provides a folding knife with an 8.5cm stainless steel blade. Its varnished oak handle and Virobloc safety ring make it a straightforward choice for planned camp and home use.

The blade is made from Sandvik 12C27 modified stainless steel and has a Yatagan shape. The Virobloc safety ring is part of the knife’s design; check that it is correctly positioned before use and fold the blade away safely after the job is done.

Where it fits in your kit

  • Home emergency box — a useful cutting tool for household tasks.
  • Shed or woodstore — keep it with tools used for practical jobs.
  • Camp kitchen — use it for food preparation with a suitable cutting surface.
  • Bushcraft camp — handy for routine camp tasks where a folding knife is appropriate.
  • Woodland work — a compact tool for planned cutting jobs.

Prep tips

  • Store the knife clean and dry, with the blade folded away.
  • Check the blade and Virobloc safety ring periodically, and practise opening and closing it safely before you rely on it.
  • Use a stable cutting surface for food preparation and keep the knife separate from items that could damage its edge.
