Sandvik Stainless Steel Blade
The Sandvik stainless steel developed for Opinel is renowned for its sharpness and ease of maintenance. Stainless steel capable of undergoing the heat treatment that gives it its good hardness is called martensitic. It has a carbon content of at least 0.40%, which allows for a very satisfactory sharpness without being sensitive to corrosion.
Handle in natural varnished Hornbeam
The hornbeam comes from French farms. It is a white wood with little grain, ideal for applying colors without distorting them. The handle is varnished to be better protected against humidity and dirt .
