The stainless steel of OPINEL blades is a grade optimized to guarantee both high resistance to corrosion and high mechanical performance.
The blade offers excellent cutting edge and high resistance to abrasion (wear) which allows it to withstand regular contact with hard materials, such as ceramic, before requiring resharpening. Stainless steel has the advantage of requiring no special maintenance under ordinary use conditions, unlike carbon steel. However, it may encounter its limits when placed in prolonged contact with an aggressive environment (acid, salt water, detergent, etc.).
The Olive tree is the mythical tree of the Mediterranean. Olive wood is pleasant to the touch and has a beautiful polish. With a golden yellow to orange appearance, it has a grain that is often dense and sinuous.
