Description

TheOpinel Colorama 06 inox purple with th ong is a folding outdoor knife featuring a Sandvik 12C27M stainless steel blade, Virobloc locking mechanism, and a wooden handle with a thong for attachment.

The knife has a 70mm long blade, made of modified Sandvik 12C27M stainless steel hardened to57-58 HRC. Thanks to the admixture of chromium, the Swedish steel is resistant to corrosion and requires no special maintenance. 12C27M is a pure fine-grained alloy with high carbon content (min. 0.40%), which is distinguished by good wear resistance, and satisfactory retention. Thanks to such parameters, the blade stays sharp for a long time, is resistant to corrosion and wear, and is easy to sharpen. The blade is unfolded with two hands using a nail cutout.

Exotic blade profile

This model uses a jatagan profile blade. The designer was inspired by a traditional Turkish saber with a characteristically curled tip. The blade has a perfectly derived convex grind, which guarantees excellent cutting performance and ensures high strength of the cutting edge. The side edges of the convex grind are convex and flow smoothly from the cutting edge to the back of the blade, allowing us to cut faster and more efficiently compared to, for example, concave grind.

Wooden handle

French hornbeam wood was used for the handle, with a varnish coating to protect it from dirt and moisture. The handle has a traditional oval profile that widens at the end, making the knife comfortable and secure in the hand. A hole in the handle was used to weave in a thong, which makes it easy to remove the knife from your pocket and allows it to be trolled to your gear.

Virobloc lock

The knife uses the Virobloc locking ring designed by Marcel Opinel in 1955. Virobloc has a steel construction and consists of two parts: a fixed (inner) one and a movable one, responsible for locking the blade in the open and folded positions. The mechanism is easy to use, durable and reliable, which is why Opinel has been using it almost unchanged for more than 65 years.

About Opinel

Opinel is a French company founded by Joseph Opinel in Savoie, producing folding knives and high-quality kitchen knives.

In 1890, Joseph Opinel designed his first folding knife, the simplicity, functionality and durability of which have stood the test of time, thanks to which, despite the passage of more than 130 years, the Opinel folding knives retained their classic appearance.

The timeless success of Opinel knives was due to their simple construction, consisting of only 4 elements: a blade, a wooden handle, a pin and a metal sleeve that acted as a lock.

Today, Opinel produces knives in carbon and modified steel as well as the popular Swedish 12C27 Sandvik stainless steel. The handles of the knives are made of wood and durable plastic.

The offer of the French company includes traditional folding knives, modern multi-functional knives, mushroom knives, garden knives, and a wide range of knives and kitchen tools.

Opinel has specialized in the design and production of high-quality knives for more than a hundred years. It is most famous for producing tourist knives, which are considered iconic by users and enthusiasts of this type of accessories around the world. The available products are distinguished primarily by the use of good quality materials , such as carefully selected wood species, extremely durable carbon steel or stainless Swedish steel. Thanks to this, they will serve for a long time, guaranteeing reliability and resistance to mechanical damage. Currently, our online store Kolba.pl offers modern Opinel kitchen knives , ensuring comfort during everyday cooking.
