A knife made from sustainably logged wood and European stainless steel
Opinel is the perfect companion for outdoor activities such as picnics, barbecues, hiking or even whittling. Durable, low maintenance, affordable and lightweight it is the iconic non-switch blade pocket knife to keep with you as an everyday carry.
