Product Description:
The Opinel Knife, crafted high in the French Alps, famous and virtually unchanged since 1890. With a classic and unique design, these French country knives do all have a natural Wood Handle.
Opinel Les Forgés 1890 knives exemplify the high quality of French knife making. Their masterful design by BIG-GAME studio, combined with their ancestral tradition of fine craftsmanship, will impress even the most discerning connoisseurs.
This fully forged Paring Knife, which has been made entirely (blade, bolster, and tang simultaneously) from a single, X50CrMoV15 Stainless Steel Rod, benefits from the grain flow and superior quality imparted by hot forging.
The Opinel Les Forgés 1890 Paring Knife is a piece of art. Short and pointed for delicate, precision cutting, peeling, dicing, trimming artichokes, stemming strawberries, peeling potatoes...etc
The full-tang blade extends throughout the entire length of the handle. The knife is robust and well balanced.
The Handle is in Beechwood from sustainably managed forests and it is no varnished. It is stabilized to improve water resistance. Its ergonomic design is an homage to the traditional pocket knife and provides outstanding grip comfort.
