Set of 10 Opinel Inox knives - No. 2-12, beech

This set of 10 Opinel Inox knives in various sizes is perfect for any knife collector. Each knife has a stainless steel blade and a beech wood handle that looks great.

The stainless steel with a hardness of 55-57 HRC used in the blades is a grade optimized to guarantee both high corrosion resistance and high mechanical performance. The advantage of stainless steel is that it does not require special maintenance under normal conditions of use. However, it can reach its limits if placed in prolonged contact with aggressive environments (acid, salt water, detergent, etc.).

Beech is the most commonly used wood for Opinel handles. French beech is hard, durable and easy to work with. With a homogeneous appearance, its light color varies from yellow to pink. It is characterized by the presence of numerous small dark lines.

Invented by Marcel Opinel in 1955, the Virobloc safety ring is fitted to all folding knives from No. 6 onwards. Cut from stainless steel, the Virobloc has two sections - one fixed and one sliding. In addition to locking the blade in the open position (safety in use), it is now possible to lock the blade in the closed position (safety in transport).
