Features:

Rail

Opinel pocket knife No.6 has a blade length of 7 cm. The blade is made of 12C27 stainless steel, modified by Sandvik and adapted to Opinel knives, and is renowned for its extremely high quality and easy daily maintenance. The steel is hardened by heat treatment with martensitic hardening. With a carbon content of at least 0.40%, the blade is of high quality and corrosion resistant.

The traditional Opinel blade is of the jatagan type. This shape was inspired by the curved point of the Turkish sword. The Jatagan blade has a convex profile, which gives it strength and allows it to be sharpened repeatedly.

Handle

Opinel mostly uses beech wood for its handles. Beech trees grown on French farms are hard, resistant to external influences and easy to handle. The wood has a homogeneous appearance and its light colour can vary from yellow to pink. Beech wood can be identified by its numerous dark streaks. The handle is varnished to protect it from moisture and dirt.

Virobloc protective ring
The Opinel pocket knife No. 8, like all other Opinel curved knives from No. 6 onwards, is equipped with the Virobloc safety ring invented by Marcel Opinel in 1955. The Virobloc ring, which is cut from stainless steel, consists of two parts: a fixed and a sliding part. The blade is locked in both a folded position (for safe handling) and a folded position (for safety during transport).

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.
