THE USEFULNESS OF AN OPINEL KNIFE
Everyone has heard of Opinel knives, which have become legendary by now! Traditionally, the Opinel knife is a pocket knife with a wooden handle that we take everywhere with us. Whether you're a scout, a Sunday hiker or an inveterate adventurer, this knife will quickly become your best friend. Ideal for picnics and DIY outings, its sturdy, razor-sharp blade is a great asset when the need arises(imagine having lunch at the top of a hill, how are you going to spread your jam...).
Opinel knives are more than just pocket knives! Although they are recognized as such, they also have their place in your kitchen. The sharp blade of a paring knife is perfect for chopping onions and slicing fruit and vegetables. We all need a French Opinel in our kitchen for our everyday tasks!
THE OPINEL KNIFE IN DETAIL
Born over a century ago, the Opinel knife is the product of 100% French know-how. The blade is made of stainless steel or carbon steel, depending on the knife. The carbon steel blade is harder and therefore keeps its edge longer, but requires a lot of maintenance. The stainless steel blade is much easier to maintain, but requires more frequent use of a whetstone. The handle is very often made of beech, a rustic touch that is unique to Opinel and gives these knives a certain charm. Pocket knives feature a safety ferrule that holds the knife open when in use, and closed when not in use to prevent injury.
