Opinel No.08 Folding Garden Knife, 3.35 Inch Stainless Steel Blade, Beech Wood Handle, Virobloc Lock, Made in France

The Opinel No.08 Garden Knife is the most versatile size in Opinel's gardening line. Its reinforced stainless steel blade has a pointed toe for getting under weeds, cutting heads of lettuce and lifting dandelions root and all, and the tapered beech wood handle keeps it light and comfortable in the hand.

Stainless steel stands up to wet soil and sap, and the Virobloc safety ring locks the blade open while you work and closed in your pocket.
