The explosion of interest in outdoor activities and bush crafting in recent years has led to many small but dedicated artisans who manufacture exceptionally designed and constructed folding knives. One company that has more experience than most in this field is Opinel, the French company founded back in 1890, initially dedicated to camera manufacturing before turning its hand to the Opinel No. 08 pocket knife. Over a century later, the brand launched its exclusive Opinel Limited Edition Nature No.08 Folding Knife Collection Bundle onto the market.
Each knife in the bundle brings the four key components of its traditional knives up to the modern age, with the blade, fixed ferrule, haft, and rivet all precisely engineered for outstanding performance.
Three knives are included in the Nature No.08 Folding Knife Collection Bundle, each of which has been created around the theme of nature and the various interpretations of the given artists. The first design, which honors artist, Perrine Honoré, brings a colorful and festive aesthetic with abstract elements and an organic composition.
The MioSHe Nature knife draws on the image of the goddess of the full moon, Selene, with a nod to another goddess of harvests and agriculture, Demeter, to strengthen its association with nature. Chilean visual artist, Rommy Gonzalez, rounds up the trio of knives with a reference to mycology, expressed by the complex fungi represented with class and style.
The Opinel Limited Edition Nature No.08 Folding Knife Collection Bundle is priced at $150 and is a great collection of collectible pocket knives for the discerning nature lover.
