The tool-like utensil starts off with the brand's signature No.08 Folding Knife and comes with the Picnic+ [modular cutler inserts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aecooly), which eliminate the need for [disposable cutlery](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lollo). The inserts come in fork and spoon options, and only need to be slid into the handle at mealtime to support easier eating. The Opinel Picnic+ Cutlery Kit is available now for preorder directly from the brand for $35, but is also being made available with the inserts only for existing owners of the aforementioned knife to pick up for $18. The kit comes with a napkin-style carrying cloth to allow for enhanced portability.
