The Opinel No.6 Traditional Stainless Steel Folding Knife is an iconic outdoor adventure tool with an 7 cm (2.87 inch) blade that locks securely into place, and folds neatly into the handle between tasks. The timeless Opinel Number 6 is lightweight enough to throw in you pocket or bag so it is always by your side.
This knife is perfect for everything from picnicking to opening boxes.
The blade of the No.6 is made from high-quality European stainless steel. It is hardened to a Rockwell Hardness of 55-57, optimized to ensure corrosion resistance and superior performance. The razor-sharp blade holds its edge, even when used with hard materials, ensuring a lifetime of performance.
The grind of the No.6's blade is convex, which minimizes contact between the sides of the blade and the material being cut, prolonging the sharp edge's life. This grind also makes the blade extremely strong and allows Opinel to put a remarkably sharp edge on it.
Crafted in the French Alps, this folding pocket knife features a varnished beechwood handle made from wood sourced from sustainably managed forests in France. It is contoured for a comfortable grip.
The blade locks open for use or closed between jobs with Opinel's patented Virobloc safety ring, which is a stainless steel ring that rotates into position and keeps the blade securely in place.
