Description from the seller
Opinel N°08 Cervo – Fold knife with laser-engraved deer – Oak wood handle – Sandvik 12C27 stainless steel blade – France
Description
Auction proposing an elegant Opinel N°08 Cervo, one of the most fascinating versions of the iconic French knife, characterized by a refined laser engraving depicting a deer immersed in a mountain landscape on the oak wood handle.
The N°08 is the most versatile model of the historic Opinel range: thanks to its balanced size and light weight, it is perfect for daily use, hikes, camping, trekking, mushroom gathering, picnics, and convivial moments.
The 8.5 cm blade is made of European-origin Sandvik 12C27 stainless steel, hardened to 55-57 HRC, a alloy developed to offer an excellent balance between cutting ability, edge retention, and corrosion resistance. The high wear resistance allows the blade to maintain its edge for a long time even after regular use on challenging materials, while stainless steel requires minimal maintenance under normal use conditions.
The handle, 10.9 cm long, is made of fine French oak wood, a hard, durable essence naturally rich in tannins that makes it particularly protected against insects and fungi. The finish with protective varnish preserves the wood from moisture and dirt, keeping its beauty intact over time.
The knife features the famous Virobloc safety ring, invented in 1955 by Marcel Opinel and present on all models from No. 06 onwards. Made of stainless steel, it consists of a fixed part and a rotating part that allows the blade to be locked both in the open position for safer use and in the closed position, ensuring safety during transport.
The exemplar is supplied with the original Opinel packaging, as visible in the photos.
