Opinel Knife N°08, SLIM Handle - Beech

The small slim knife, chic and feminine.

This new knife is based on the brand's traditional elements such as the round handle and the rotating lock but includes a slimmer elegant profile.

Flexible and thin, it is carefully sharpened on a diamond wheel to get a razor-sharp cut.

Blade length
8 cm
Sandvik stainless steel
We use Sandvik 12C27 modified stainless steel. It is anti-corrosive thanks to the addition of chrome and requires no special maintenance. Its carbon content of at least 0.40% gives excellent cutting edge.
Handle
Beech is the most commonly used wood for the manufacture of Opinel handles. From France, our beech is hard, durable and easy to work. With a homogeneous appearance, its light color varies from yellow to pink. It is characterized by the presence of numerous small dark dashes.
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).
