Pocket knife N°05 6 cm, natural, beech wood, Opinel

Product detailed description

There are usually plenty of things lying around in a drawer whose purpose has long been forgotten. However, the Opinel N°05 can justify its place practically every time there is a need to open, adjust or make a precise cut.

Main advantages:

• The Opinel N°05 Inox folding knife is a compact helper for everyday small tasks, model making, crafting and more precise handiwork.
• The 6 cm blade provides a practical compromise between very small models and larger pocket knives, allowing for precise cutting guidance.
• Martensitic stainless steel of European origin with a hardness of 55-57 HRC offers high sharpness, mechanical resistance and very good protection against corrosion.
• The blade's high resistance to wear helps maintain a quality cut even with regular contact with harder materials before needing resharpening.
• Under normal conditions, stainless steel does not require special maintenance, making it well-suited for a knife intended for frequent daily use.
• The classic Yatagan-style blade features an upswept tip and a convex profile, which contributes to its strength and allows for efficient resharpening of the edge.
• The varnished beech wood handle 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.
• Light beech wood can transition from yellow to pinkish tones, and its natural grain is complemented by characteristic small darker lines.
• The varnished surface helps protect the wooden handle from moisture and dirt during regular daily use.
• The 8 cm handle keeps the knife pleasantly compact while still providing sufficient control during finer work.
• You will appreciate its compact dimensions when opening parcels, model making and other activities where a larger utility knife is not required.
• The knife easily fits into small work or travel kits and does not take up unnecessary space where compactness is key.
• The pocket knife is not dishwasher safe, and when cleaning by hand, it is important not to unnecessarily wet its wooden handle.
• The knife is made in France and preserves the traditional character of Opinel in a small, precise and practical design for everyday use.
