Opinel Colorama Series No. 7 Pocket Knife - Stainless Steel with Leather Strap

Product Description Introducing the No.07 Colorama Stainless Steel Pocket Knife – the perfect mid-size option for those in need of a knife that's neither big nor small, but just right. The blade has been crafted and refined over generations to offer top-notch cutting quality and easy sharpening. Whether you're in the garden, at the dinner table, or embarking on your next adventure, this versatile knife is the ideal companion to keep in your pocket, purse, or toolbox, sure to bring you years of use and enjoyment.

The No.07 features the outstanding quality of Sandvik(R) 12C27 Modified stainless steel, which is renowned for its anti-corrosive properties and minimal upkeep requirements. With a carbon content of at least 0.40%, this steel provides an excellent cutting edge and is easy to maintain. The patented VIROBLOC locking mechanism ensures the knife remains safely closed in your pocket and securely open during use, while the sustainable wooden handle keeps the knife lightweight and easy to handle.

This smart and simple folding knife comprises five essential elements: the blade, wooden handle, fixed ferrule, rivet, and rotating VIROBLOC locking ring, which was introduced in 1955 to sizes No.06 and above. Boasting a 3.2-inch blade and a 7-inch open length, the No.07 is perfectly sized for everyday carry.

To keep your knife in top condition, it's important to note that Opinel wooden-handle knives are not dishwasher-safe. The wood can swell with exposure to heat and moisture, making the knife difficult to open at times. Instead, hand-wash your knife and allow it to air-dry. The Sandvik 12C27 Mod. Stainless Steel used for the blades is low-maintenance and highly rust-resistant, and can be polished or maintained with simple organic oils.
