The Opinel No. 8 is a classic French foraging and harvesting knife. (All of us at North Spore carry an Opinel on our mushroom forays!) They also make a great gift for the forager or mushroom cultivator in your life.

Sharp, reliable, and lightweight, the brush on the bottom of the handle makes cleaning mushrooms in the field or log yard a breeze (saving the harvester from the annoyance of dirty mushrooms spreading dirt onto cleaner mushrooms in their bags or baskets.) It's the perfect knife for foraging and harvesting both delicate and sturdy mushrooms including morels, chanterelles, porcinis, oyster mushrooms, shiitake, and more!

• Serrated back edge helps with scraping and cleaning
