Opinel No.09 Cime OP003103

The Opinel No.09 CIME is a masterful balance of traditional French knife-making heritage and contemporary design flair. Built for those who appreciate both form and function, this folding knife delivers the cutting performance you need with the refined style you want. At the heart of the No.09 CIME is a 3.51-inch drop point blade made from high-quality stainless steel, finished in a sleek satin polish that not only enhances its visual appeal but also provides excellent corrosion resistance. This blade is equally at home slicing fine charcuterie at a picnic or tackling camp prep tasks in the backcountry.

Opening is quick and intuitive with the classic nail nick, a hallmark of Opinel’s timeless design. The knife features the brand’s signature Virobloc® safety ring, a simple yet ingenious mechanism that securely locks the blade in place when open for safe use, and also locks it closed for worry-free carry. This proven system adds peace of mind without adding unnecessary complexity.

The handle is where the CIME truly stands out. Crafted from a striking combination of light and dark wood tones, it offers a warm, natural feel in the hand while showcasing a visually rich contrast. Its ergonomic shaping ensures a comfortable grip during extended use, while its smooth finish speaks to the meticulous craftsmanship behind every Opinel knife.

Weighing in at just 2 ounces and measuring 8.18 inches when open, the No.09 CIME is lightweight enough for pocket carry yet large enough to handle a wide range of cutting tasks. It’s a versatile companion—equally suited for outdoor adventures, casual dining, or as a distinctive everyday carry option.

With the No.09 CIME, Opinel has created a knife that embodies practicality without sacrificing elegance, making it a standout choice for anyone who values tools that perform as beautifully as they look. Order it today from SMKW!
