A classic and exceptionally lightweight folding knife from French manufacturer Opinel, which has been producing knives for almost 100 years. The flat-ground thin edge is made of carbon steel, which, thanks to its properties, is ideal for sharpening and honing. Carbon steel is highly resistant to dulling. To maintain its best qualities, carbon steel needs proper care. It is therefore advisable to dry the knife and wipe it with oil after each use. By following these principles, the blade will keep its original appearance and perfect sharpness.
The well-shaped beech wood handle guarantees a secure and comfortable grip. The blade lock is formed by a rotating collar, which was patented back in 1955 under the name virobloc.
This knife will be appreciated by anyone looking for a traditional, simple, and functional knife. It is also an excellent candidate for an original and practical gift.
