My First Opinel Blue
Blade length: 8 cm
Sandvik stainless steel 12C27M:
We use Sandvik 12C27M modified stainless steel. It is anti-corrosive thanks to the addition of chrome and requires no special maintenance. Its carbon content of at least 0.40% gives excellent cutting edge.Blade hardness 57-58 HRC
Round-tipped blade:
A round ended tip for added safety, also perfect for picnic, to spread butter and make sandwiches
Handle:
Coming from French forests, this white wood with few veins is ideal for applying color. The handle is varnished to be protected against moisture and dirt.
Safety ring:
Invented by Marcel Opinel in 1955, the Virobloc safety ring is fitted to all folding knives from the N° 06. Cut out of stainless steel, the Virobloc has two sections, one fixed and one sliding. In addition to locking the blade open (safety in use), it is now possible to lock the blade closed (safety in transport).
As blue as the sky and the sea
Small adventurers, handymen and gourmands will love it.
