## Long description

Opinel No. 08 is a compact pocket knife with a red beechwood handle and a folding stainless steel blade. The knife features the traditional slip-joint folding mechanism associated with Opinel, providing a simple, reliable resistance to blade closure without a locking tang. Its lightweight construction and compact size make it convenient for everyday carry, outdoor activities and basic cutting tasks. The beech handle is replaceable and finished in red, combining classic appearance with practical durability.
Advantages
The slip-joint mechanism offers smooth opening and closing while reducing the risk of accidental locking, and the stainless steel blade resists corrosion and is easy to maintain. The beech handle provides a comfortable grip and natural warmth in the hand, and the compact No. 08 size balances cutting utility with portability. The folding design protects the blade when not in use and the knife’s simple construction makes cleaning and care straightforward.
Suitable for
 Everyday carry for light cutting tasks
 Camping and outdoor food preparation
 Opening packages and cutting cords
 Basic hobby and craft tasks
Key specifications
 Blade material: stainless steel
 Handle material: beechwood, red finish
 Mechanism: slip-joint folding mechanism
 Design: folding pocket knife with exposed tang style operation
 Weight: lightweight, designed for everyday carry
How to use
Open the blade by rotating it with the thumb until the slip-joint engages and provides resistance. Use the blade for cutting tasks appropriate to a non-locking pocket knife: slicing food, trimming rope, opening boxes and other light-duty jobs. After use, close the blade carefully by pressing it back into the handle until it seats fully. Keep fingers clear of the folding path while opening and closing.
Usage recommendations
Maintain the Opinel No. 08 by wiping the blade clean after use and drying it to avoid moisture accumulation. Periodically apply a light oil to the pivot area to ensure smooth action. Use appropriate sharpening methods for stainless steel and avoid prying or heavy twisting loads that exceed the design limits of a slip-joint knife.
