Opinel N°8 Carbon steel + Alpine Sheath Gift Box Bootsie's Our hardened 304 stainless steelThe No. 08 Carbon Steel pocket knife is the knife that started it all. Joseph Opinel first designed and patented the knife in 1890. Originally distributed as a knife for farmers and train conductors, keeping the knife high quality, simply designed and affordable has always been the goal of Opinel. It's no wonder why we've produced and sold over 30 million units of this very knife in our 130 year heritage.
