Description

For their newest limited edition artist series, Opinel has teamed up with Jérémy Groshens -Les Aiguilles de Dje, a 29-year-old French tattoo artist. Travelling between the mountains of his native Alsace and the Basque coast, Jérémy takes his art on the road, working from a 1972 Digue camper-turned-mobile workshop and tattoo parlor called the Outdoor Tattoo Truck.

 

Opinel decided to work with Jérémy on a specific theme: “Getaway,” the desire to take off on an adventure, and to delight in the beauty of nature. Three limited edition knives came out of this partnership.

 

“Azimut” revisits the artistic potential of mountain cartography.  The contour lines that decorate the handle and the black blade trace a relief map of the Aiguilles d’Arves, a mountain located in Savoie, France that is part of the Maurienne range, the birthplace of Opinel.
