Great for teaching kids how to cut, prune or carve wood, this starter knife has a stainless steel blade that makes it easy to maintain. The sheath is made from recycled material and will stand the test of time. Opinel’s patented Virobloc locking mechanism keeps the blade safely closed for transport or securely open while in use. Adult supervision is suggested when teaching kids to use the knife.

Joseph Opinel designed his first pocketknife in 1890, creating a tool that is as robust and functional as it is simple and beautiful. From his workshop at the foot of the French Alps, Opinel forged a cult classic. Generations of artists, explorers and farmers have carried the instantly recognizable, imminently useful Opinel knife in their pockets.
