Technical specifications

Martensitic 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 ...).

Blade length

10 cm

Handle

PEFC-certified hornbeam comes from eco-managed farms in the Jura and Vercors regions. This white wood with few veins is ideal for applying color. The handle is varnished to be protected against moisture and dirt.
