The blade and handle are built to the same reliable spec as other Opinel No. 08 knives (see below), but the metal has a black finish and the handle has an all-over print of Mioshe's mystical artwork.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a numbered limited edition of 9000.

His universe blends hybrid and chimeric figures, fauna and flora, masculine and feminine, the cosmic and the historical. At once landscape-like and sometimes cartographic, his pictorial compositions may bring to mind certain paintings of the Flemish Renaissance, or even, in a more distant register, the archetypes of ancient Greece or ancient Egypt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Opinel No. 08:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMade in the French Alps since 1890, Opinel knives are both sophisticated and thoroughly practical. Their sharp, thin blades are great for everyday tasks like cutting an apple or opening a box. The patented Virobloc® safety ring can lock your blade in place while open (for stability and safe cutting) or while closed (so it doesn't open accidentally.)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNote the \"INOX\" marking on the blade; that's short for \u003cem\u003einoxydable,\u003c\/em\u003e which means 'stainless' in French. This knife is made from Sandvik 12C27 stainless steel — an extremely high-quality Swedish alloy of steel, chrome, and no less than 0.40% carbon content for sharpness. It resists corrosion and stays sharp for a long time, so it's a great choice for everyday use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLike all classic Opinel knives, this one folds neatly into its hardwood handle. It's made from beechwood, which resists warping and has an understated, natural look.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. 08 size: 3.28\" blade, 7.59\" overall length, 1.6 oz weight.
