Opinel Knife N°07 in Carbon Steel with Beechwood Handle and Virobloc Safety Ring

Discover the iconic Opinel Knife N°07 in Carbon Steel, a timeless classic of French knives, designed in 1890 by Joseph Opinel. This knife is renowned for its excellent cutting quality, thanks to the carbon steel blade that ensures hardness, wear resistance, and ease of sharpening.

• Beechwood handle: Made from wood sourced from French plantations, the handle is sturdy, durable, and easy to work with. Its light color ranges from yellow to pink and is protected by a varnish that shields it from dirt and moisture.
• Virobloc safety ring: Invented in 1955, this ring allows you to lock the blade in both open and closed positions, ensuring safety during use and transport.

The Opinel Knife N°07 is ideal for small hands and perfect for all DIY activities. However, it is essential to perform proper maintenance of the blade after use: dry and lubricate the blade to prevent corrosion, as carbon steel has low resistance to moisture.
