Whether you're opening packages, or having an impromptu picnic in the park, you'll be glad to have this folding knife close at hand. Ideal for outdoor activities and sports, the No. 06 is also practical and efficient for daily manual work (small crafts and sewing).
Its size is particularly suited to the most petty hands. It offers an excellent cutting quality. The beech wood handle is comfortable in the hand. The Virobloc® safety ring allows the user to work without any risks.
FEATURES
- Blade Length : 7 cm.
- Carbon Steel XC90 : Our carbon steel is extremely hard, thereby guaranteeing excellent cutting quality, good wear resistance and easy regrinding. Carbon can corrode easily. We advise you to avoid damp locations and to wipe and grease the blade after use.
- Handle : Beech is the most commonly used wood for the manufacture of Opinel handles. From France, our beech is hard, durable and easy to work. With a homogeneous appearance, its light color varies from yellow to pink. It is characterized by the presence of numerous small dark dashes.
- Safety Ring : Invented by Marcel Opinel in 1955, the Virobloc safety ring is fitted to all folding knives from the No. 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).
MAINTENANCE TIPS
Carbon steel blades are very susceptible to corrosion. They should be dried after each use and greased regularly.
