Oyster Knife Padouk Handle

Unique in its folding design, the No. 9 Oyster Knife was designed to safely stow away, making it easy to carry - whether that’s on a boat, or in your pocket as you head to the beach. This knife features a blunted blade with a sharp tip, specific to oyster shucking. The padouk wood handle is resistant to swelling, and utilized for its ability to hold up well in humid or wet environments.  Thanks to the Virobloc® locking ring, it will stay closed when you want it to, and open when you need it to.

For over 130 years Opinel has been crafting knives and tools in the heart of the French Alps.  When Joseph Opinel designed his first pocket knife in 1890, the French blacksmith created a tool that was robust, simple, and beautiful. Crafted in the Alps from local materials, that knife would go on to become a design icon, passed down by generations of artists, explorers, farmers, and adventurers.  Each Opinel product is still manufactured in their Chambery, France factory.
