The Opinel pocket knife with wooden handle. Originally made for farmers in 1890 by Joseph Opinel. The Opinel pocket knife is a famous, yet very cheap pocket knife for daily use. Available from very small to quite large.

The larger models are equipped with the simple but effective Virobloc lock. This is formed by the ring that can be turned around the pivot point. This will block the blade. A classic in the truest sense of the word.

Many Opinel pocket knives are made of carbon steel, which is quite sensitive to rust. However, this knife has a blade made of Sandvik 12C27 steel. This steel is stainless, which improves user-friendliness.
