Pocket knife N°09 CARBON 9 cm, natural, beech wood, Opinel

Product detailed description

A DIY project often begins with the claim that it will only take ten minutes, and ends with dinner eaten amidst tools and three trips to the hardware store. The N°09 CARBON is exactly the kind of helper that joins in on such weekend adventures without asking unnecessary questions.

Main advantages:

• The Opinel N°09 CARBON folding knife is a robust helper for DIY enthusiasts, work around the house, the workshop, and practical use outdoors.
• The 9 cm blade provides more working surface than smaller models and performs well when cutting a wide variety of materials.
• XC90 carbon steel excels in high hardness, excellent cutting performance, good wear resistance, and easy subsequent sharpening of the edge.
• You will especially appreciate the easy resharpening during regular work use, allowing you to continuously keep the edge in very good condition.
• The carbon blade is more sensitive to corrosion, therefore requiring thorough drying after use and regular light treatment with oil.
• When in contact with certain foods, the surface of carbon steel can oxidize more quickly, so it is advisable to clean and dry the blade immediately.
• The handle made of varnished beech wood fits comfortably in the hand and provides a secure grip during a variety of work activities.
• The PEFC-certified beech wood comes from sustainably managed forests in the Jura and Vercors regions and excels in hardness and durability.
• Light beech wood can range from yellow to pinkish tones, and its natural grain is complemented by characteristic darker lines.
• The tinted varnish helps protect the wooden handle from moisture and dirt during regular use in and out of the workshop.
• The 11.82 cm handle provides plenty of room for a comfortable grip and confident guidance of the knife during more demanding work.
• The Virobloc safety ring allows the blade to be locked in the open position during work and in the closed position during transport and storage.
• The stainless steel Virobloc consists of a fixed and a sliding part, so you can secure the desired blade position by simply turning the safety ring as needed.
• The N°09 CARBON model will be especially appreciated by users who want a larger folding knife with an easily sharpenable carbon blade for regular work.
• The knife is made in France and follows the traditional Opinel design with a wooden handle, carbon blade, and the patented Virobloc safety ring.
