Opinel Picnic+ Stainless Steel Utensil Insert Set – Premium Fork & Spoon Attachments for N°08 Pocket Knives

Opinel Picnic+ Stainless Steel Utensil Insert Set – Premium Fork & Spoon Attachments for N°08 Pocket Knives

The Opinel Picnic+ Insert Set is a brilliant, ultra-lightweight outdoor dining accessory pack masterfully engineered to upgrade your existing pocket knife into a full-sized, eco-friendly travel cutlery set. Part of Opinel's technical Nomad Cooking Collection, this innovative kit allows you to completely eliminate flimsy single-use plastic takeaway forks and spoons in favor of an exceptionally durable steel setup. Designed to work seamlessly with your existing wooden-handled N°08 folding pocket knife, the inserts slip into the handle slot when the blade is folded closed, using the patented Virobloc® rotating safety collar to lock the fork or spoon rigidly into place. Bundled with a high-density microfiber napkin that doubles as a rattle-free wrap-around travel pouch, this compact insert set is the definitive gear upgrade for hikers, commuters, overlanders, and open-air food lovers.

Best For Existing Opinel owners, wilderness hikers, fast-packers, and eco-conscious commuters looking for a compact utensil attachment pack to convert their standard N°08 pocket knife into a high-strength, full-metal fork and spoon set.

Key Features

• Ingenious Virobloc® Locking Integration: Clamps directly into the throat of your folding knife, utilizing the rotating safety twist ring to lock the fork or spoon insert rigidly so it will not slide, wobble, or buckle during use.

• Universal N°08 Heritage Compatibility: Specifically engineered to fit all traditional wooden-handled Opinel N°08 folding knives equipped with the Virobloc® safety ring manufactured from the year **2000 onward**.

• Premium Sandvik Stainless Steel: Both the deep-bowl spoon and heavy-duty fork inserts are ground from high-purity Scandinavian stainless alloy, providing long-lasting structural strength, high impact defense, and absolute rust resistance.

• Dual-Purpose Microfiber Napkin Case: Includes a high-density microfiber towel that works as an on-the-go cleaning cloth, a protective trail napkin, and a compact roll-up storage pouch equipped with elastic slots to hold the inserts rattling-free.

• Eco-Friendly Pack Weight Reduction: Drastically slashes your trail pack weight and pocket footprint by utilizing one single structural wooden handle to host your cutting blade, dinner fork, and morning porridge spoon.

Pro Tip & Picnic+ System Compatibility: The Picnic+ Insert Set is a masterpiece of precision engineering, but paying close attention to the structural compatibility matrix is key to a flawless lockup. This insert set is designed exclusively for standard-profile, wooden-handled N°08 folding knives with the Virobloc safety collar. Because specialized models like the N°08 Mushroom, Gardening, or Slim Effilé knives feature different bolster geometries and curved frames, they will not accept these inserts. To use, simply close your knife blade, open the Virobloc ring, insert the fork or spoon tab firmly into the bolster slot, and twist the ring closed to lock it tight. Both steel inserts and the microfiber pouch are 100% dishwasher safe, making cleanup back home completely effortless!

Oversized Item Delivery Options

Oversized, heavy, and structural goods ship via specialist freight. Freight is calculated at checkout from estimated packaged volumetric or physical weight. Carrier depot audits may adjust the rate — if the increase exceeds 10%, we will contact you before processing.

Available options include:

✔ Delivery to your closest depot for pickup — default method
✔ Direct delivery — requires an operational forklift on site unless Tailgate Delivery has been specifically requested and quoted (contact us — this cannot be selected at checkout)
✔ Tailgate hydraulic lift delivery — must be specifically requested; contact us for a quote (not available as a checkout option; extra fees apply; required if you do not have a forklift)
✔ Forklift loading at our warehouse (no extra charge if you arrange your own freight)
✔ Direct truck delivery (available in Victoria)

Important Notes:

• Shipping costs vary by location and method
• Any carton or consignment over 25–30kg (or over 200cm) must be palletised
• Without a specifically requested and paid Tailgate Delivery quote, palletised freight requires a forklift on site — otherwise the carrier will redirect to the nearest depot
• Bulky and oversized items cannot be delivered to a PO Box — provide a physical street address
• Failed deliveries, locked gates, unattended sites, or incorrect business/forklift declarations may incur carrier redelivery, demurrage, and restocking fees as set out in our Terms & Conditions

Business Delivery:

• Selecting a business/commercial delivery rate warrants that the address has an operational forklift and certified operator during business hours
• If the carrier cannot unload, the consignment may be redirected to a depot and secondary fees may apply
• Additional fees may apply for failed delivery attempts due to lack of appropriate unloading equipment

See our Terms & Conditions (Article 8) for full freight and delivery rules.

Important Note on Availability & Shipping

Our warehouse is a logistics hub, not a retail showroom. Listing a product online does not mean it is stored at our Thomastown warehouse — many lines ship from supplier hubs (split fulfilment may apply).

How lead times work:

• Product page ETA: The Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA) / lead-time badge shown on the product page at checkout is the agreed delivery timeframe for that order under Australian Consumer Law.
• Metro baselines: Advertised ETAs apply to standard metropolitan zones. Regional and remote addresses may take longer and may attract surcharges.
• Peak seasons: Orders in March–May, August–October, EOFY (June), Black Friday/Cyber Monday (November), and Christmas/New Year (December–January) may automatically add a 2–4 week buffer beyond the product page ETA.
• Supplier-dependent / backordered items: If stock is delayed, we will notify you with a revised ETA. You then have 7 days to accept the new timeframe or cancel for a full refund.
• Adloheat: Custom-made products from Adloheat (Pakenham, VIC) may take 4–12 weeks depending on the order.

Full fulfilment, cancellation, and freight rules are in our Terms & Conditions.
