Blade Length: 8.5 cm Carbon Steel: Opinel carbon steel is a non-alloy, high-carbon steel capable of obtaining, after the heat treatment operation, the excellent hardness which guarantees perfect holding of the cutting edge as well as great resistance to wear and easy resharpening. However, since carbon steel has a low resistance to corrosion by humidity, it requires precautions for use: do not leave your knife in a damp environment, particularly in the dishwasher, wipe the blade with a greasy cloth after use and grease it often as well as its joint. Handle: Beech is the wood most commonly used for the manufacture of Opinel handles. From French farms, it is hard, resistant and easy to work with. With a homogeneous appearance, its light color varies from yellow to pink. It is recognizable by the presence of many small dark lines. The handle is varnished to be better protected against moisture and dirt.

• Safety ring: Invented in 1955 by Marcel Opinel, the Virobloc safety ring is fitted to all folding knives from number 06. Cut out of stainless steel, the Virobloc consists of two parts: a fixed part and a sliding part. In addition to locking the blade in the open position (security of use), it is now possible to lock the blade in the closed position (security of transport).
