Blade
8 cm round-tipped secure blade with Virobloc double safety-ring.
Made from Sandvik stainless steel, it is anti-corrosive thanks to the addition of chrome and requires no special maintenance. Its carbon content of at least 0.40% gives excellent cutting edge.
Hornbeam handle
Sourced from sustainable French forests, this white wood has few veins which makes it ideal for applying coloured varnish. The handle is varnished to protect it against moisture and dirt.
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).
