Opinel N°06 Luxe pocket knife with padouk wood handle Blade length 7 cm

The compact luxury Opinel size 6 is equipped with a stainless steel blade and a padouk wood handle. The Virobloc system secures the blade against accidental opening and folding during work. The knife is supplied in an attractive gift box.

Martensitic stainless steel
The stainless steel of Opinel blades is an optimized grade that guarantees both high corrosion resistance and high mechanical performance. The blade has excellent sharpness and high abrasion resistance (wear resistance), which allows it to withstand regular contact with hard materials such as ceramics before needing to be sharpened. Stainless steel has the advantage that, unlike carbon steel, it requires no special maintenance under normal conditions of use. Nevertheless, it can reach its limits if it comes into contact with an aggressive environment (acid, salt water, detergent, etc.) over a long period of time.

Handle
Padouk is a dense, African wood with a fine grain. The color varies from purple-brown to pink with purple veins.

Safety ring
The Virobloc safety ring is cut from stainless steel and consists of two parts: a fixed part and a sliding part. In addition to locking the blade in the open position (safe use), it is now also possible to lock the blade in the closed position (safe transportation).
