Opinel No. 4 Carbon Steel Knife with Beechwood Handle

Opinel Folding Knives No.02 - No.05 Product Description

Perfectly Pocketable: Commonly used as a letter opener or box opener, the Opinel Folding Knives No.02 - No.05 are the smallest of the Opinel knives, making them perfect for fitting in just about any pocket. While tiny, they feature the signature Opinel blade with a beechwood handle. Their closed lengths range from under 2 inches to 3 inches (5.5 inches when opened), which means they are compact enough to carry anywhere.

The Right Features at the Right Cost: Despite their small size, these folding knives still maintain the quality and features you would expect from Opinel. The simplicity of their design and the sustainable wooden handle make these knives durable and lightweight. They are designed to be practical and useful, with excellent cutting quality and wear resistance. However, due to their size, they do not feature the Virobloc safety ring.

Made in the French Alps for Over 130 Years: Opinel knives have been a classic tool since Joseph Opinel designed his first pocket knife in 1890. Their timeless design and commitment to quality and simplicity have made them a favorite among generations of users. Even today, Opinel knives are still made in the French Alps by a team of 150 employees, who produce over 5 million knives each year.

Caring for Your Knife: To ensure the longevity of your Opinel knife, it is important to avoid washing it in the dishwasher. Heat and moisture can cause the wood to swell, making the knife difficult to open. Instead, hand-washing and immediate drying is recommended, along with lubricating the blade with cooking oil before closing the knife to prevent oxidation.

Variety of Options: The Opinel Folding Knives come in different blade lengths, overall lengths, and handle options, providing you with a range of choices to suit your preferences. Some knives feature additional features like a serrated blade, shackle key, and even an integrated whistle.

These knives are ideal for those who appreciate high-quality, traditional craftsmanship with a touch of modern functionality and convenience. Whether you need a small, everyday carry pocket knife or a versatile outdoor tool, the Opinel Folding Knives have you covered.
