Opinel No. 8 Outdoor Knife – OP002320
Unleash your wild side with the legendary Opinel No. 8 OP002320 Outdoor Knife—a perfect blend of French heritage, rock-solid engineering and modern innovation. Since 1890, the Opinel family has hand-crafted simple, dependable knives in the heart of the French Alps. Today, the No. 8 continues that tradition with features designed to thrill campers, hikers, anglers and everyday explorers.
At its core, the No. 8 sports a 12C27 Sandvik stainless-steel blade honed into a Yatagan profile inspired by the Ottoman saber. That sweeping curve delivers razor-sharp performance, effortless re-sharpening and rock-solid strength when you’re cutting rope, carving tinder or filleting fish. When the blade flips out, the patented Virobloc safety ring snaps into place—locking it open for confident work or closed for secure transport. No surprises on the trail; just smooth, safe action every time.
The handle is molded from fiberglass-reinforced polyamide, so it laughs in the face of shock, humidity and temperature extremes from –40°F to +176°F. Hidden inside is a pea-less survival whistle rated at 110 decibels, ready to summon help or signal your group in any weather. Whether you’re building a shelter at dawn or carving a hike-fast meal, the Opinel No. 8 is your go-anywhere companion—light enough to carry all day, tough enough to stand up to anything you throw at it.
Classic, compact and endlessly useful, the Opinel No. 8 OP002320 redefines what an outdoor knife can be. It’s more than a tool; it’s a piece of French history that’s earned its place in the pockets of farmers, travelers and adventurers for over a century. Ready to turn every outing into an unforgettable story? Clip it on, lock it up and let your next adventure begin.
