Opinel Knives & Multi-Tools-No.8 Mushroom Knife

Blade: Stainless steel is an alloy steel. The addition of chromium increases its resistance to corrosion. Stainless steel does not require any special maintenance.

Handle: Beech is the most commonly used wood for the manufacture of Opinel handles. With a homogeneous appearance, its light colour varies from yellow to pink, and it is characterised by the presence of numerous small dark dashes.

Virobloc 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).
