You can't go wrong with an Opinel, simple design with good steel and great value. A combination that has worked for years and will carry on working for years and years.
Opinel knife blades are made using steels with a high carbon content, which is what makes it possible to achieve the excellent hardness after heat treatment, guaranteeing the good strength of the cutting edge, resistance to wear and easy sharpening.
They use Sandvik 12C27 modified stainless steel which is quite simply one of the best stainless steels on the market. It is anti-corrosive thanks to the addition of chrome and requires no special maintenance. Its carbon content of at least 0.40% gives an excellent cutting edge.
The blade locks using the Virobloc safety ring, which in addition to locking the blade in the open position for safety of use, now enables locking of the blade in the closed position for safety during carrying.
The handle is made from durable Walnut wood, and the Opinel Yatagan blade, with its curved point and round profile, is effective, precise, elegant.
The Opinel folding knife is an ideally sized backup or emergency pocket knife, perfect for all purposes - a true all rounder.
Blade lengths:
No. 6 - 7cm
No. 8 - 8.5cm
Can;'t go wrong with an Opinel
Opinels are classic, they're super popular for a reason. The no. 8 is the perfect size for a camping companion, lightweight but strong. I bought this one for a gift so picked the walnut handle. It really adds a lot to the aesthetics, it feels a lot more special than my beech model.
Highly recommend!
Opinel- can’t beat traditions
Great size for my wife, she also loves the walnut handle. Very pleased, can’t go wrong with classics!
Perfect
I wanted a cheap knife to throw in my hiking bag and this is perfect. Unbelievably sharp and the walnut handle makes it feel like a much more expensive knife
Excellent quality, good price and swift to deliver - thank you
Beautiful walnut handle
