The Opinel No.08 is the most versatile Opinel. It is essential for sport and bivouacs, and well loved for fishing and hunting. This version comes with an alpine sheath with a belt loop and leather lace, so it goes everywhere with you.
The corrosion-resistant stainless steel blade needs no special care in normal use, and the beech wood handle is comfortable in the hand.
