Opinel’s folding mushroom knife is a perfect companion when you’re hunting king boletes, chanterelles and other delicious mushrooms that grow in Sonoma County forests. It features a thin and curved corrosion-resistant stainless steel blade designed for cutting delicate fungi, a boar-bristle brush for cleaning away soil, a solid beechwood handle and a safety locking ring. Made in France since the 19th century, Opinel knives have long been celebrated for design simplicity, beautiful craftsmanship and precise functionality. $30. opinel-usa.com
