Description
Peeler 115 peeler on Opinel guarantees quick and efficient peeling of all types of vegetables. Its weight and ergonomic shape make it very comfortable to use, and it can be used with either the right or the left hand. The stainless steel with a hardness of 55-57 HRC used in the brand's blades is a grade optimised to ensure both high corrosion resistance and high mechanical performance. Its advantage is that it does not require special maintenance under normal conditions of use, unlike carbon steel. However, it may reach its limits if placed in prolonged contact with aggressive environments (acid, salt water, cleaning products and others). The handle is made of beech.
Opinel knives, with their 120-year history, have become a symbol of French culture and way of life. The first was created in 1890 by Joseph Opinel, then an 18-year-old boy working in the family tool-making workshop. The knife quickly gained popularity among local farmers, herdsmen and vineyard workers. It was simple, light, durable and comfortable. This popularity soon went beyond the borders of the province of Savoy, and today beyond France. In 1985 the Victoria and Albert Museum in London selected the brand as part of an exhibition in honour of the "100 most beautiful products in the world", together with the Porsche 911 and the Rolex watch. Opinel was chosen as one of the 999 best designs in the world and was exhibited at the Museum of Modern Art in New York as a design masterpiece.
