Pocket knife N°02 CARBON 3.5 cm, natural, beech wood, Opinel

Product detailed description

There are tools for big life decisions, and then there are tools for the moment when you are defeated by three centimetres of adhesive tape. Without grand gestures, Opinel N°02 CARBON specialises precisely in this second category, and does so with surprising dignity.

Main advantages:

• The Opinel N°02 CARBON folding knife is the smallest Opinel model with a carbon blade and is suitable for everyday small tasks, model making and precise craft work.
• The 3.5 cm blade allows for highly precise guidance during delicate cutting, opening packages or working with small materials.
• The XC90 carbon steel excels in high hardness, excellent cutting performance, good wear resistance, and easy subsequent sharpening.
• Easy edge restoration is practical for regular use, as you can continuously maintain the small knife in excellent cutting condition.
• The carbon blade is more sensitive to corrosion, therefore requiring thorough drying after use and regular light treatment with oil.
• In contact with certain foods, carbon steel can oxidise more quickly, so it is advisable to rinse the blade if necessary and dry it immediately.
• The handle made of varnished beech wood provides a comfortable grip and preserves the characteristic natural look of traditional Opinel knives.
• The PEFC-certified beech wood comes from ecologically managed forests in the Jura and Vercors regions and excels in hardness and durability.
• The light beech wood can range from yellow to pinkish tones, and its grain is naturally complemented by small darker lines.
• The tinted varnish helps protect the surface of the wooden handle from moisture and dirt during regular daily use.
• The 4.66 cm handle keeps the entire knife truly miniature while allowing controlled guidance during small, precise tasks.
• You will appreciate its small dimensions in model making, creative activities or unpacking shipments where a larger working blade is not needed.
• The compact design allows you to easily keep the knife close at hand in small gear, a pouch or an organiser with other work tools.
• Its simple design and very small size make it a practical tool wherever precision and compactness are more important than blade size.
• The knife is made in France and preserves the traditional Opinel concept with a beech handle and a classic XC90 carbon blade.
