Opinel is a world-renowned brand for many reasons. Their production is top-notch, their innovative ring-lock is reliable and durable, and their design is timeless. These pocket knives excel at any task, giving you a feeling of self-confidence just by sitting in your pocket.

This knife has a carbon steel blade, the most traditional of Opinel designs. Be sure to dry in-between uses to avoid rusting. When cared for properly, they patina beautifully and hold their edge reliably.

About Opinel - Opinel is the quintessential French pocket knife. Their history of forging steel goes back to the early 1800's in the Opinel family, and the numbered sizing system that they are known for was created in 1897 by Joseph Opinel. As demand increased, Joseph moved the company to Pont de Govoudaz to create a larger facility, innovating new knife-making machines, training workers, and bringing electricity to the village for the first time ever! Nowadays, Opinel is an internationally recognized design. Their minimalist designed has hardly changed, save for innovative new styles and the use of higher-quality modern steels.

Opinel carbon

"Great knife, durable and great quality for the price. I prefer the carbon over stainless but that's just my personal preference."

It's a classic beauty with

"It's a classic beauty with lots of personality. That being said, the blade sticks - it's hard to fold open or closed. I'm told the break in takes a few weeks, so if you're okay with that, great little pocket knife."

I couldn’t be more pleased!

"The Opinel No. 8 folding knife I purchased from Kent of Inglewood has far exceeded my expectations in both quality and performance. The craftsmanship is impeccable, with a beautifully polished carbon steel blade that holds an edge remarkably well, making it perfect for everything from everyday tasks to outdoor adventures. The beechwood handle is not only comfortable to hold but also adds a rustic charm that enhances the knife's overall aesthetic. Kent of Inglewood provided excellent service, ensuring the knife arrived quickly and in pristine condition. This Opinel No. 8 has quickly become an indispensable tool, and I couldn't be more pleased with my purchase."
