Blade length: 8.5 cm
Stainless steel: Stainless steel is an alloy steel. It is obtained by adding chromium, which significantly increases its resistance to corrosion. Stainless steel does not require any particular maintenance.
Handle : The olive tree is the mythical tree of the Mediterranean. The olive wood is pleasant to the touch and has a beautiful polish. With a golden yellow to orange appearance, it has an often dense and sinuous grain.
Safety ring : Invented in 1955 by Marcel Opinel, the Virobloc safety ring is used on all closing knives from N°06 on. Cut out of stainless steel, the Virobloc is made up of two parts: a fixed part and a sliding part. In addition to locking the blade in the open position (safety in use), it is now possible to lock the blade in the closed position (safety in transport).
Depuis 1890, Opinel fabrique au coeur des Alpes françaises, en Savoie, des couteaux et outils de qualité reconnus mondialement.
