• 8 cm stainless steel blade: offers excellent cutting performance and corrosion resistance.
• Varnished beechwood handle: ensures a secure and comfortable grip.
• Virobloc safety ring: locks the blade in the open or closed position for added safety.

The stainless steel used in Opinel blades is designed to resist corrosion and provide high mechanical performance. The blade maintains an excellent edge and resists abrasion, reducing the need for re-sharpening. Unlike carbon steel, stainless steel requires no maintenance under normal usage conditions.

The Yatagan blade, inspired by a Turkish sword, is a distinctive feature of Opinel knives. With its unique curved profile, it offers robustness and ease of re-sharpening.

The beechwood used for Opinel handles comes from French plantations. This wood is hard, durable, and easy to work with, featuring a color that ranges from yellow to pink with dark streaks. The handle is varnished for protection against dirt and moisture.

The Virobloc safety ring, invented in 1955 by Marcel Opinel, is present on all folding knives starting from N°06, ensuring safety both during use and transport.
