Description
The Opinel Effilé No. 10 ebony is an elegant and practical pocket knife. Its narrow blade makes it ideal for tasks like filleting fish and cutting fine, thin slices. It is an elegant pocket knife that you can take anywhere, but that will also make a graceful addition to the dining table. This pocket knife is made in France.
This knife belongs to Opinel’s Luxury Range, meaning it comes in a gift box and has a velvet storage pouch.
Opinel Effilé series
Opinel Effilé, formerly the Slim Line, is the new name for this graceful collection of pocket knives from Opinel. Opinel Effilé knives are available in different sizes and with various, luxurious wooden handles! The new logo of the Effilé series is stamped onto the metal bolster.
Opinel Effilé Virobloc
The knife has a Virobloc lock, also called a ring lock. With a Virobloc, the hinging of the blade is securely blocked by the ring. This type of locking system requires two hands, which means your fingers are less likely to come near the cutting edge.
Opinel Effilé type of steel
The blade is made from Sandvik 12C27 steel. This steel is exceptionally corrosion resistant thanks to the addition of chrome, and very durable thanks to the high carbon content. As a result, it’s stainless and retains its sharp edge very well. The best of both worlds! In addition, the blade is polished for an extra shiny result.
Opinel Effilé ebony
The knife has a stylish handle made from ebony. This is a rare, dark type of wood from the forests of Africa. You often see ebony used in sculptures and musical instruments. The deep black colour offers a beautiful contrast to the high-gloss polished blade. In addition, the wood has a high density and hardness that makes the knife not only graceful, but also durable. The slim handle feels great in hand.
Opinel Effilé maintenance
In order to enjoy your Opinel pocket knife for a long time, maintenance is key. A coat of oil now and then will prevent the wood from drying out and will ensure that it won’t lose its colour. Don’t forget to grease the locking mechanism too! This keeps the ring running smoothly. You can make the blade razor-sharp again with sharpening stones. Always store your knife properly in a matching sheath to prevent damage to the blade or handle. Check out our combo deals and complete your set!
