Full description
The larger models feature the simple yet effective Virobloc safety twistlock mechanism, which allows the blade to be locked in both the open and the closed positions. This pocket knife is a classic in the true sense of the word.
The blade of this knife is made of carbon steel. It is very easy to sharpen and hone to a thin edge, making it razor sharp, yet very strong. Carbon steel is more susceptible to rust than stainless steel and therefore needs to be cleaned properly and kept dry. If you prefer an Opinel knife with a rust-resistant blade, you can use the knives with stainless steel.

I love these knives. I've had a No. 8 for about 14 years and have used it for any number of things: cutting meat, wood, electrical work, cutting plasterboard. I've abused it frankly over the years but it still probably has years left in it. I'm going to look after my No.10 better. I haven't had much opportunity to use it yet but I already love it. It is solid, extremely well made and I don't believe you can buy a better knife for the money. I also have a No.12 in stainless and that is also a beauty. I've used it a lot in the kitchen and in 12 months I think I've sharpened it maybe twice.
