Wood whittling is fun, creative and gets kids immersed in nature. These premium quality folding whittling knives are made by trusted French knife brand Opinel and are the most common and widely trusted knives available.
There are two options to suit different ages and ability levels, a round tip blade beginner knife, and a pointed tip blade advanced knife.
Both knives have a safety ring to secure when in use and fold for safe storage, this makes them excellent for picnics and gardening as well.
Beginner (Opinel No.7) Knife:
- Stainless steel 8cm blade
- Round tip blade for safety
- Contoured beech handle for comfort
Advanced (Opinel No.8) Oak Knife:
- Stainless steel 8.5cm blade
- Sharp pointed tip blade
- Contoured oak handle for comfort
Having the right tools makes whittling enjoyable and safe. Whittling projects can be found in each book in the Nature Craft Series.
*PLEASE NOTE*
Packaging may vary to what is shown, however the products are the same. Our usual plastic free packaging is not always available due to supply chain issues.
Keeping the knife sharp is important for safety. A blunt knife requires more force to get through the wood, which can result in accidents. Carefully clean your knife after use with olive oil on a rag to remove resins and residue.
Birthday Girl super happy with her present! Loves the gloves as they feel super safe, the drill came in handy at her Wild Craft birthday party, and Dad even borrowed her knife to carve her cake into a Dragon! Love these gifts - looking forward the the Penknife book restock! #moregreenlessscreen for the win :-)

As a mum I love whittling for myself as a mindful, relaxing activity.
My little ones are now learning how to whittle. They are always on the hunt for sticks when we are out in nature. It's the perfect budget- friendly activity that encourages patience, focus and creativity.
My husband was surprised we were able to get an Opinel knife from Your Wild Books. He's had one for years and thought you could only get it in France, like he did :).
We love all the tools and art and craft supplies that Your Wild Books stocks conveniently in the one place.

My son loves having a penknife of his very own. I brought this for him for his birthday…he’s been using his dads for years and so excited to have his own.
He’s been out in our back paddock all afternoon finding just the right sticks to create new things with.
