Traditional #08 Workshop Collection 8.5cm by OPINEL

Condition: NEW

Code:YO002173

The OPINEL Traditional No. 08 Workshop Collection combines the familiar functionality of the classic folding knife with a distinctive handle made from contrasting natural woods. Created to make use of ebony that would otherwise be discarded due to imperfections, each handle brings together walnut and ebony, separated by a thin layer of maple. The result is a distinctive appearance that celebrates the natural character of the timber.

The 85 mm blade is made from modified Sandvik 12C27M stainless steel, offering good corrosion resistance and dependable cutting performance for everyday tasks and outdoor use. Its traditional Yatagan-style profile provides a practical cutting edge, while the Virobloc safety ring allows the blade to be locked open during use or closed for storage and transport.

Each handle is manually finished with a special wax to create a smooth, soft-touch surface. The combination of carefully selected woods and classic OPINEL construction makes this knife an appealing option for collectors and those who appreciate traditional craftsmanship.
