Martensitic Stainless Steel

Hardness 55-57 HRC. Origin Europe.

The stainless steel of OPINEL blades is a grade optimized to guarantee both high corrosion resistance and high mechanical performance.

The blade offers excellent sharpness and resistance to abrasion (wear) that allows it to cope with regular contact with hard materials, such as ceramics, before requiring resharpening. Stainless steel has the advantage of not requiring any special maintenance under ordinary conditions of use, unlike carbon steel. However, it can reach its limits when it is put in prolonged contact with an aggressive environment (acid, salt water, detergent, etc.).

Handle

Beech is the most widely used wood for the manufacture of Opinel handles. Sourced from French farms, it is hard, resistant and easy to work with. With a homogeneous appearance, its light colour varies from yellow to pink. It is recognizable by the presence of many small dark lines. The handle is varnished to be better protected against moisture and dirt.
