Description
The Opinel NO6 Stainless Steel is a small, Viroblocdouble safety ring Opinel with a European origin. It is ideal for outdoor activities and sports, as well as for daily manual work (small crafts and sewing). The size is particularly suited to the most minor hands. The beech wood used for the manufacture of the handle is hard, durable, and easy to work. The blade is ground to an exclusive convex profile that ensures the strength of the blade and allows efficient regrinding. The blade length is 7 cm.
The N06 is the smallest Opinel with Viroblocdouble safety ring. Ideal for outdoor activities and sports, N06 is also practical and efficient for daily manual work (small crafts and sewing). Its size is particularly suited to the most minor hands.
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. 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 ...).
The classic Opinel blade has adopted a Yatagan shape. The Yatagan shape is inspired by a traditional Turkish saber, the toe up. The blade is ground to an exclusive convex profile that ensures the strength of the blade and allows efficient regrinding.
