No.5 Beech

2 1/2" mirror polished 12C27 MOD Sandvik stainless blade with crowned hand hallmark etching. 5 1/2" Overall Length. Beech wood handle.

Opinel's largest model that does not feature the Virobloc safety ring, and as such is non-locking. This smaller knife is commonly used to perform small tasks such as opening letters or cutting papers.


Sandvik12c27 MOD
All Opinel stainless steel blades are modified by adding at least 0.40% of carbon to the "sandvik" blend , giving it a good cutting edge but which explains why knife blades are not totally corrosion-proof. Only a carbon-free steel would be, but it would not have the hardness guaranteeing a good cutting quality and the excellent strength of the cutting edge.
