Pocket knife N°08 LUXE 8.5 cm, padouk wood, Opinel

Product detailed description

Luxury in a pocket knife does not have to mean gold, diamonds and the fear of using it at all. Sometimes beautiful wood, clean design and a touch of French confidence are all it takes.

Main advantages:

• Opinel N°08 LUXE is an elegant folding knife for everyday carry when you want a quality cutting tool in a compact design.
• The 8.5 cm blade offers very good cutting performance and a practical size for everyday use.
• The folding design makes it easy to carry the knife safely and gives it more practical use outside the kitchen or home.
• Martensitic stainless steel of European origin reaches a hardness of 55-57 HRC and offers high corrosion resistance.
• The high mechanical resistance of the steel supports reliable use of the knife even during regular contact with harder materials.
• Wear resistance helps the edge retain a quality cut longer before the blade needs to be sharpened again.
• Under normal conditions, stainless steel does not require any special maintenance, making it practical for regular everyday use.
• The padouk handle gives the knife a distinctive luxurious character while providing a solid foundation for a secure grip.
• Padouk is a dense African wood with a fine grain, with shades ranging from purple-brown to pink.
• Characteristic purple veins highlight the natural grain of the wood and give each handle a distinctive, elegant and unmistakable look.
• The varnished surface helps protect the padouk handle from moisture and dirt during regular use and transport.
• The 10.9 cm handle maintains the compact proportions of the N°08 model and provides comfortable space for holding.
• The Virobloc safety ring allows the blade to be locked securely in the open position, increasing confidence during work.
• The same Virobloc system can also lock the blade when closed, making the knife safer to carry.
• The knife is made in France and belongs to the luxury Opinel range, which focuses on premium materials and elegant craftsmanship.
