It really is a must have piece for the knife conniseurs out there. I don't recommend this as your first or only knife. This is one you buy when you have already built an established collection and want to start adding more "artistic" pieces and pieces with heritage. This knocks that out of the park. Excellent price, superb quality and feel. Very light weight as well and does come super sharp. The walnut is exquisite. I really enjoy using the locking mechanism on the knife as well, it's simple and just works. No matter what size hands you have Opinel makes a knife for you, I personally have smaller hands and while this knife does fit great I could see why the #07 would be delightful as well. Review: I’ve retired my more expensive brand knives for Opinel - Where 100 plus years of history and robust design meet superb simplicity and quality. I’ve carried my share of other much more expensive brands. Those are all in a bottom drawer now in favor of my Opinel! It performs just as well as my other blades. Zero disappointment with Opinel. About the price, they could charge much more for these knives. But do not. Mine is used daily for mostly tough agricultural work. It holds an edge well. The blade locks securely with a beautiful and simple ring. The overall balance and natural feel of the wood gives the handler great confidence at the task. I have large hands and the #8 fits well yet small enough not to need a belt sheath. I chose olive wood because…. Well because it looks awesome. ## Features - WONDROUS WALNUT: This French wood is yellow brown or grey brown, and presents dark veins and overall color to contrast the lustrous stainless steel blade of this folding pocket knife. A refined take on the iconic Opinel. - INOX BLADE: We use Sandvik 12C27 modified stainless steel. It is anti-corrosive thanks to the addition of chrome and requires no special maintenance. Carbon content of at least 0.40% provides an excellent cutting edge and is easily sharpened. - THE CROWNED HAND: In 1565 King Charles IX commanded every knife maker to stamp an emblem on their products to guarantee their origin and quality. In 1909 in order to honor this tradition Joseph Opinel chose the Crowned Hand as his emblem - PATENTED VIROBLOC: A hallmark of Opinel everyday carry knives since it’s invention in 1955, the Virobloc ring offers a unique, thoughtful, and easy to use safety mechanism for locking the blade during use, during transport, and during storage - FRENCH HERITAGE: For over 130 years Opinel has been crafting knives and tools in the heart of the French Alps. Much like Joseph Opinel did from his workshop in 1890, today we still manufacture Opinel products from our factory in Chambery, France. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000UH0RTC | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Best Sellers Rank | #23,143 in Sports & Outdoors ( See Top 100 in Sports & Outdoors ) #40 in Camping Folding Knives | | Blade Edge | Flat | | Blade Length | 6.5 Inches | | Blade Material | High Carbon Stainless Steel | | Blade Shape | Straight Back | | Brand Name | OPINEL | | Color | Walnut | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (4,528) | | Global Trade Identification Number | 03123840009822, 03123840020254 | | Hand Orientation | Ambidextrous | | Handle Material | Walnut Wood | | Included Components | Folding pocket knife | | Item Length | 6.5 Inches | | Item Type Name | Pocket Knife | | Item Weight | 0.8 Ounces | | Manufacturer | Opinel | | Model Name | Opinel Stainless Steel No. 6 - Walnut | | Model Number | 2025 | | Power Source | Manual | | Product Care Instructions | Hand Wash Only | | Recommended Uses For Product | Utility | | Reusability | Reusable | | Special Features | Ergonomic Handle, Foldable | | Style | Walnut Handle | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Description | Lifetime Limited Manufacturer | ## Product Details - **Age Range (Description):** Adult - **Blade Material:** High Carbon Stainless Steel - **Brand:** OPINEL - **Color:** Walnut - **Handle Material:** Walnut Wood - **Included Components:** Folding pocket knife - **Model Name:** Opinel Stainless Steel No. 6 - Walnut - **Recommended Uses For Product:** Utility - **Special Feature:** Ergonomic Handle, Foldable - **Style:** Walnut Handle ## Images ![OPINEL No.06-No.09 Premium Woods, Stainless Steel Folding Pocket Knife, Made in France (No.06/Walnut) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51aVJ6rh5WL.jpg) ![OPINEL No.06-No.09 Premium Woods, Stainless Steel Folding Pocket Knife, Made in France (No.06/Walnut) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51OL-cly0oL.jpg) ![OPINEL No.06-No.09 Premium Woods, Stainless Steel Folding Pocket Knife, Made in France (No.06/Walnut) - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81oUbE9VqbL.jpg) ![OPINEL No.06-No.09 Premium Woods, Stainless Steel Folding Pocket Knife, Made in France (No.06/Walnut) - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61Cx+5MecWL.jpg) ![OPINEL No.06-No.09 Premium Woods, Stainless Steel Folding Pocket Knife, Made in France (No.06/Walnut) - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71bY7xw7KhL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Incredible piece of knife history; A must have. *by J***D on September 17, 2025* I love the quality level of this knife.

Well because it looks awesome. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect pocket knife, safe, high quality, affordable *by S***H on September 14, 2025* Opinel No. 8, Stainless Steel, Olive Wood I recently discovered the usefulness and versatility of pocket knives, and decided I wanted my own. I didn’t want one that was too expensive but also not cheaply made; enter Opinel. What great value for money. I chose the more rust resistant Stainless Steel over Carbon Steel because I don’t think I am diligent enough to maintain a carbon steel blade to prevent rust and also don’t care for that taste on food if I were to use it at camp. The Olivewood is beautiful and smooth in your hand. I am tall and have large hands for a woman, it fits perfectly in my hand. The size is compact enough for me to put it in my handbag or pocket. There are useful size guides out there on the interwebs, there are many size options, but the No.8 is a good everyday use size. A lovely feature of the Opinel pocket knives are the patented Virobloc locking ring that secures the blade in the open or closed position, and for their specialized children's models like Le Petit Chef, a rounded blade tip, a finger ring to ensure correct hand positioning, and a finger guard. P.S. We live in an extremely humid area and the wood expanded a bit the first day or two I had it and the blade had trouble opening, but a tiny drop of WD-40 in the hinge did the trick. I am quite impressed with this pocket knife and highly recommend it. P.P.S There is a lovely little book; The Guy's Guide to Pocket Knives by Mike Yarbrough if you don’t know where to start with pocket knives, and there are a few PDFs of "Nessmuk" George Washington Sears books on the interweb that also give interesting information on knives.
