A chef's best friend doesn't need to be a good listener, they just need to be always ready to help. The N°218 INTEMPORA is exactly the partner that won't shy away from a long list of tasks in the kitchen.

Main advantages:

• The Opinel N°218 INTEMPORA chef's knife is a versatile working tool for the daily cutting of meat, vegetables and other common ingredients.
• The 20 cm blade easily handles cutting, slicing and fine chopping of meat during everyday home food preparation.
• When processing vegetables, it allows you to dice, slice, finely chop and prepare even strips or french fries.
• The curved edge facilitates a rocking motion when chopping, so ingredients can be processed smoothly without constantly lifting the entire blade.
• The rigid and stable blade helps maintain an accurate cutting trajectory and provides confidence when cutting larger quantities of ingredients over longer periods.
• The continuous edge extending all the way to the heel of the blade makes it easy to use the full length of the cutting edge while simplifying subsequent sharpening.
• The Sandvik 12C27M stainless steel blade contains 0.52% carbon, which supports high sharpness and cutting performance.
• The addition of 14.5% chrome increases the blade's corrosion resistance and helps preserve its properties during regular kitchen use.
• The full tang construction runs the steel along the entire length of the handle, promoting robustness and balanced control of the knife.
• The molded handle made of fiberglass-reinforced polyoxymethylene resists water, wear and impacts during intensive use.
• The curved shape of the handle along with the triangular profile supports a secure and comfortable grip during various cooking techniques.
• The balanced design helps during longer work with the knife and facilitates controlled guidance of the blade for precise cutting of ingredients.
