Opinel 8 mushroom knife

A professional knife for mushroom picking enthusiasts, equipped with a sickle-shaped blade and a brush for cleaning mushrooms.

The blade is made of stainless steel and polished to a semi-matte sheen. The blade is brought out with a flat-full near-zero-grind, which, combined with the small thickness of the blade, provides above-average cutting properties.

Opening the knife is possible thanks to a notch on the blade, and in the open position the head is locked with the patented Viroblock. This is a steel ring on the handle located at the level of the axis of rotation of the head. After opening the knife, we rotate it a few degrees, so that it covers the blade slot in the handle, so that the head has no possibility of movement. In an analogous way, we secure the knife from accidental opening after folding.

The handle is made of beech wood. It is ergonomically contoured and provides a secure grip.
