Opinel knife Animalia Deer 08
The lord of the woods.
The handle is lasered. It is comfortable in the hand. The blade guarantees very good sharpness. The security system called Virobloc® blocks the blade in the open position and closed position.
Our oak comes from France. It is a hard wood, very resistant, to insects and fungi thanks to a high tannin content. It has a yellow-brown appearance, with regular veining.
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 ...).
