Description

This famous Opinel folding knives are to hand during all your adventures: hiking, camping, bivouacking, hunting and fishing. Extremely versatile, they are the ideal companion for your excursions into Nature.

The carbon steel is extremely hard, thereby ensuring that the cutting edge is maintained, little wear and easy regrinding.
The carbon is not very corrosion-resistant: we advise you to avoid damp environments and to wipe and oil the blade after use.

Cut out from a strip of steel, the blade is heat-treated to alter the internal structure of the steel, making it very hard. This raw blade then passes through a series of specific grinding wheels in the fully robotised grinding-polishing machines. They give it the unique domed Opinel profile which ensures unrivalled strength and cutting edge.

Invented by Marcel Opinel in 1955, the Virobloc safety ring locks the blade in the open position (safety in use), and the blade can also be locked in the closed position (safety in transport).

Blade: Carbon Steel
Handle: Beech

    Light and sharp

    Perfect little multi purpose utility knife for my tramping kit. Strong enough to shave feather sticks but still dexterous enough for fine work. Weight is negligible.
