Pocket knife N°04 CARBON 5 cm, natural, beech wood, Opinel

Product detailed description

The N°04 CARBON is ideal for people who dislike solving a one-minute problem with a ten-minute search for the right tool. A small Opinel can simply be close at hand and turn the whole affair into a brief episode instead of a mini-series.

Main advantages:

• The Opinel N°04 CARBON folding knife is an exceptionally compact helper for everyday small tasks, model making, crafting and precise handiwork.
• The 5 cm blade length allows for highly precise guidance during delicate cutting, opening packages or working with smaller materials.
• The XC90 carbon steel excels in high hardness, excellent cutting performance, good wear resistance, and easy subsequent sharpening.
• Easy edge restoration is practical during regular use, as you can continuously maintain the knife in very good cutting condition.
• The carbon blade is more sensitive to corrosion, therefore requiring thorough drying after use and regular light treatment with oil.
• Upon contact with certain foods, carbon steel can oxidize more quickly, so it is advisable to clean and dry the blade immediately.
• The varnished beech wood handle provides a comfortable grip and preserves the characteristic natural look of traditional Opinel folding 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 6.6 cm handle length keeps the entire knife very compact while providing sufficient control for finer work.
• You will appreciate its small dimensions in model making, creative activities, or unpacking parcels, where a larger utility knife 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.
• The knife is not dishwasher safe, and during cleaning, it is important not to soak the wooden handle or carbon blade in water unnecessarily.
• The knife is made in France and preserves the traditional Opinel concept with a beech handle, carbon blade and simple compact construction.
