No.08 Folding Knife

From his workshop at the foot of the French Alps, Opinel forged a cult classic.

Joseph Opinel designed his first wood handle pocket knife in 1890, creating a tool that is as robust and functional as it is simple and beautiful. The iconic and timeless No.08 is much more than just a folding knife: it's one of the best-designed items in the world, a registered trade name in the French dictionary, and a museum piece represented at the MoMA in New- York. The No.08 folding knife is a piece of History, with a razor-sharp blade and comfy wooden handle.
