A small but mighty, and definitely handy, tool is the newest product at River & Trail Outdoor Co. Pocket knives and picnic accessories from Opinel Knives are now available.

Opinel Knives have been made in the French Alps since 1890. While some things have evolved since then, the legendary design and values that go with it remain unchanged. The knives are robust, and beautifully simple. They are built with durability in mind so they can be passed on from generation to generation.

They come in a variety of sizes to accommodate for different activities and hand sizes. They are an essential companion for your outdoor adventures. Along with their classic pocket knives, we also have a knife with a rounded tip intended for children, coined as “My First Opinel”.

To ensure their longevity, the knives require proper maintenance. Hand wash only, and do not immerse your knife in water, as this could warp the wooden handle. Dry the blade before closing. For more info on maintenance, visit their website here.
