Opinel No.08 Ebony

The Opinel No.08 Ebony is a timeless folding knife that embodies a perfect blend of tradition, elegance, and rugged functionality. This classic knife features a 3.35" Sandvik 12C27 modified stainless steel clip point blade with a satin finish, renowned for its ability to hold a sharp edge while offering excellent corrosion resistance. Whether you're using it in the outdoors or for everyday tasks, the blade's clip point design delivers precision for fine slicing, making it ideal for everything from food preparation to light utility work. The nail nick allows for easy manual opening, making the knife practical and simple to use.

What truly sets the Opinel No.08 Ebony apart is its stunning handle. Crafted from Black Ebony wood, the handle provides a striking contrast to the sleek stainless steel blade. Ebony is one of the hardest and densest woods available, and its rich, dark color adds a touch of sophistication to this otherwise rugged knife. The handle has been shaped to offer a comfortable and secure grip, ensuring it performs well in any condition. The combination of durability and beauty in this handle makes the Opinel No.08 Ebony not only a reliable tool but also a collector's piece.

This manual folder also features Opinel’s signature safety ring lock, a simple yet effective mechanism that keeps the blade securely locked in place when open or closed. This added layer of security ensures that the knife stays safely stored when not in use and provides stability during use, offering peace of mind whether you're carving, whittling, or cutting. At 4.41" closed and weighing only 2oz, it’s incredibly lightweight and compact, making it a perfect companion for outdoor adventures, travel, or everyday carry.

Designed and crafted in France, the Opinel No.08 Ebony represents over a century of knife-making expertise.
