Flexible and thin, it is carefully sharpened on a diamond wheel to get a razor-sharp cut. Ideal for filleting a fish, slicing thinly or as a pocket knife to take everywhere, the slim knife is for those who want a fine, delicate and clean cut.

Blade length: 15cm

Blade Material: Martensitix Stainless Steel.

Hardness 55-57 HRC. European origin. The stainless steel used in OPINEL blades is a grade optimized to guarantee both high corrosion resistance and high mechanical performance. The blade offers excellent sharpness and high resistance to abrasion (wear) which allows it to withstand regular contact with hard materials, such as ceramics, before requiring re-sharpening. Stainless steel has the advantage of requiring no special maintenance under ordinary conditions of use, unlike carbon steel. Nevertheless, it can meet its limits when it is put in prolonged contact with an aggressive environment (acid, salt water, detergent ...).

Handle Material: Beechwood.

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