More climbers die on Mont Blanc than on any other mountain in Europe. To help the Chamonix mountain guides who work to prevent this, French knife manufacturer Opinel involved several ENSA-certified guides to develop and test a multi-tool tailored to their specific needs. Designed so it can be opened with one gloved hand, the Neo7 Alpine includes a serrated stainless-steel knife (perfect for cutting breakcord) and a quarter-inch bit holder (sized for ski and snowboard adjustment and repair). “Instead of trying to do everything, it focuses on doing the most important jobs very well," said Francoise Detroyat, Opinel's Marketing Director.
