KNIFE - OPINEL - N°10 Charcoal

The N°10 is a knife created at the end of the 19th century in Savoy. It is perfect for any type of use, indoor or outdoor. Its 10cm carbon steel blade is easy to sharpen and ensures an excellent cut. Its beech handle is easy to handle and therefore allows you to work comfortably. The Opinel safety ring allows you to lock the blade in the open or closed position.

Opinel carbon steel is an unalloyed steel, with a high carbon content, which allows excellent hardness to be obtained from the heat treatment operation, guaranteeing perfect cutting resistance, high wear resistance and easy resharpening . However, since carbon steel has a low resistance to corrosion by humidity, it requires precautions for use: do not leave the knife in a humid environment, especially in the dishwasher, clean the blade with an oily cloth after use and grease it as often as the joint.

Beech is the most used wood for the manufacture of Opinel handles. Coming from French cultivation, it is hard, resistant and easy to work with. With a homogeneous appearance, its light color varies from yellow to pink. It is recognizable by the presence of numerous dark dashes. The handle is painted to be effectively protected from dirt and humidity.
