A professional quality 5-spiral grooved drill bit guarantees flawless cork removal .

10 cm blade in modified Sandvik 12c27 stainless steel : Excellent cutting quality, corrosion resistance, no special maintenance required.

The Sandvik stainless steel developed for Opinel is renowned for its sharpness and ease of maintenance. This steel is capable of undergoing heat treatment, which gives it good thicknesses. It has a carbon content of at least 0.40%, which allows for a very satisfactory edge without being susceptible to corrosion.

Natural varnished beech handle .

Beech : Covers approximately 10% of French forests. Beech is one of the most elegant trees, with a smooth trunk and dense foliage that prunes very well. White or very pale brown in color, its grain is fine and its structure is uniform and straight-grained. Beech wood is one of the most resistant.

All Opinel folding knives are equipped with the patented Virobloc system, with the exception of the small Tradition knives. Invented by Marcel Opinel in 1955, this stainless steel safety ring locks the blade in the open position (safety of use). Today, the Virobloc also locks the blade in the closed position (safety of transport).

10 cm Yatagan

The name Yatagan originally refers to a saber used in Turkey. When creating his folding knife, Joseph Opinel designed a blade with a so-called Yatagan shape (curved at the tip) and a rounded profile that ensures unparalleled cutting quality.
