Opinel 8 Folding garden knife

A professional knife for enthusiasts of various types of gardening work, useful for threshing and cutting.

The Opinel 8 knife blade has very good cutting properties

The blade is made of stainless steel and polished to a semi-gloss finish. The blade is ground to a near-zero flat-full grind, which, combined with the thinness of the blade, ensures above-average cutting properties.

The knife features a patented Viroblock locking mechanism

The knife can be opened thanks to a notch on the blade, and in the open position, the blade is locked with the patented Viroblock. This is a steel ring on the handle located at the height of the blade's pivot axis. After opening the knife, turn it a few degrees so that it covers the slot for the blade in the handle, preventing the blade from moving. In the same way, the knife is secured against accidental opening when folded.

The handle is made of beech wood. It is ergonomically shaped and ensures a secure grip.
