Description
The Opinel N°08 mushroom knife combines a curved Sandvik 12C27 stainless steel blade with an integrated boar bristle brush — everything a forager needs in one elegant tool. The 8cm curved blade is designed specifically for cutting mushroom stems cleanly without damaging the mycelium. The oak handle features Opinel’s iconic Virobloc safety ring for secure closure during transport.
Dawn in the Forest
The morning mist hangs low as you kneel beside a cluster of chanterelles — the curved blade slides beneath each cap at the perfect angle, severing the stem cleanly while preserving the mycelium below. A quick brush with the boar bristles sweeps away pine needles and forest debris, and another pristine specimen joins your basket.

A Forager’s Heritage
Opinel has been crafting knives in the French Alps since 1890, and their mushroom knife reflects over a century of understanding what foragers need. The Sandvik 12C27 blade holds its edge through long autumn harvests, while the oak handle is sourced from sustainably managed French forests — a tool born from the same woodlands where you forage.

Knife Care & Maintenance
Keep your blade performing at its best. Rinse and dry after each use to prevent corrosion. Apply a thin coat of mineral oil to the blade periodically. Sharpen with a whetstone or honing rod at a consistent angle. Store in a sheath, knife roll, or magnetic strip — never loose in a drawer. For carbon and Damascus steel, wipe after contact with acidic foods. For folding knives, clean the pivot area and apply a drop of lubricant to ensure smooth deployment.
