The Opinel No.05 Folding Knife Beechwood is a compact and versatile tool that brings together simplicity and reliability in a traditional design.

Whether you’re a seasoned outdoorsman or just need a reliable pocket knife for everyday tasks, the No.05 delivers with its straightforward construction and classic aesthetic.

At the heart of the Opinel No.05 is a 2.36” XC90 carbon steel clip point blade, a material renowned for its durability and sharpness. Carbon steel blades like this one hold an edge well, making them ideal for cutting tasks that require precision and power. The blade’s satin finish adds a touch of refinement, while the clip point design provides excellent control for detailed work. Whether you’re slicing fruit, whittling wood, or opening packages, the Opinel No.05 is up to the task.

Opening the knife is easy with the manual nail nick, a tried-and-true mechanism that has stood the test of time. The blade folds smoothly into the handle and, while this model is non-locking, its design ensures that the blade stays secure when in use. This simplicity is part of what makes the Opinel No.05 such a popular choice for those who value functionality without unnecessary complexity.

The handle is made from Beechwood, a natural material that offers both comfort and durability. It’s shaped to fit comfortably in hand and provides a firm grip even during extended use. The Beechwood’s warm, natural tones give the knife a timeless look, making it as much a statement of craftsmanship as a practical tool. Lightweight and comfortable, the handle is also treated to resist moisture, ensuring long-term durability even in challenging outdoor conditions.

At just 3.14” closed and weighing only .56oz, this knife is incredibly portable. You’ll hardly notice it in your pocket, yet it’s always ready when you need it. Its small size makes it an ideal everyday carry tool, perfect for both outdoor adventures and daily tasks around the home or office. Proudly made in France, the Opinel No.05 carries a legacy of quality that has made Opinel a trusted name for more than a century. Order it today from SMKW.com!
