OPINEL N°08 Outdoor Pocket Knife: Your Essential Companion for Adventure

Discover the ultimate tool for every outdoor enthusiast with the OPINEL N°08 Outdoor pocket knife. Engineered for the demands of camping, hiking, mountaineering, and water sports, this knife is more than just a blade; it´s a reliable partner designed to conquer any challenge the wilderness presents. Its iconic design, updated with modern, high-performance features, makes it an indispensable part of your gear for trekking, sailing, or any expedition.

The N°08 Outdoor is built for unwavering reliability and versatility. At its heart is a robust, 2.5 mm thick blade crafted from high-quality stainless steel, ensuring exceptional cutting performance and superior corrosion resistance, even in harsh, humid environments. The 8.5 cm blade features a unique dual-function design: a smooth, razor-sharp plain edge for general cutting tasks and a 3.5 cm serrated section specifically engineered to slice through natural and synthetic ropes with ease. Integrated into the blade is a practical shackle key, a crucial feature for sailors and anyone working with rigging.

Engineered for performance in all conditions, the handle is constructed from a durable, shock-resistant polymer. This advanced material provides an exceptional grip, whether your hands are wet or gloved, and is built to withstand extreme temperatures ranging from -40°C to +80°C. For an added layer of safety and utility, a powerful, pealess survival whistle is seamlessly integrated into the handle´s end. Capable of producing a 110-decibel signal audible from over 300 meters away, it´s a life-saving feature that functions in any weather.

Safety is paramount in the design of all OPINEL penknives. This model features the patented Virobloc® safety ring, a simple yet brilliant locking mechanism. With a quick twist, the ring secures the blade firmly in the open position for safe use, preventing accidental closure. When you´re done, another twist locks the blade securely in the closed position, ensuring safe and worry-free transport in your pocket or pack. A lanyard hole provides a convenient option for attaching the knife to your gear, so it´s always within reach.

Lightweight, ergonomic, and packed with functionality, the OPINEL N°08 Outdoor is the definitive choice for adventurers who demand performance, safety, and durability from their tools.
