Opinel Pocket Knife Color #7 Baroudeur Cyan:
This knife was created in Savoie in 1890. The No. 07 has remained a symbol of the brand. It is ideal for camping and picnics.
Its 8 cm stainless steel blade is renowned for its sharpness and ease of maintenance. The shape of the wooden handle has been designed to make the knife a pleasure to use. Its perforated handle and lanyard make it practical to hang up. Like the rest of the No. 07 collection, the knife is fitted with the Virobloc® safety system for working and travelling without risk.
A perfect gift for fans of bright, vibrant and playful colours, as blue is synonymous with optimism.
Blade Length: 8 cm
Martensitic Stainless Steel: Hardness 55-57 HRC. European origin.
The stainless steel used in OPINEL blades is a grade optimized to guarantee both high corrosion resistance and high mechanical performance.
The blade offers excellent sharpness and high resistance to abrasion (wear) which allows it to withstand regular contact with hard materials, such as ceramics, before requiring re-sharpening. Stainless steel has the advantage of requiring no special maintenance under ordinary conditions of use, unlike carbon steel. Nevertheless, it can meet its limits when it is put in prolonged contact with an aggressive environment (acid, salt water, detergent ...).
Yatagan Blade: The classic Opinel blade has adopted a Yatagan shape. The Yatagan shape is inspired by a traditional Turkish saber, the toe up. The blade is ground to an exclusive convex profile that ensures the strength of the blade and allows efficient regrinding.
Handle: PEFC-certified hornbeam comes from eco-managed farms in the Jura and Vercors regions. This white wood with few veins is ideal for applying color. The handle is varnished to be protected against moisture and dirt.
Handle Length: 10 cm
Safety Ring: Invented by Marcel Opinel in 1955, the Virobloc safety ring is fitted to all folding knives from the N° 06. Cut out of stainless steel, the Virobloc has two sections, one fixed and one sliding. In addition to locking the blade open (safety in use), it is now possible to lock the blade closed (safety in transport).
