Overview
Built as a replacement part for the Opinel No.18 Folding Saw, this spare blade is intended for hunters and outdoor users who want to keep a compatible saw ready for continued use. Its 8-inch blade length and XC 90 carbon steel construction make it a practical option for maintaining the tool rather than replacing the entire saw. At 2 oz, it adds little bulk to a pack or kit, which suits field carry and backup planning. The blade should be oiled after each use to help maintain its condition.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- Designed specifically for the Opinel No.18 Folding Saw, so it is not a universal replacement blade.
- XC 90 carbon steel requires routine oiling after each use to help maintain the blade.
- This is a spare blade only, so it does not include the folding saw itself.
- At 8 inches, it offers a longer cutting surface, but that also means it is intended for a specific saw size and use case.
