Product description
With the Gravure Sport series, Opinel offers a selection of models with motifs from the world of sport. Available in two versions, Velo or Ski, there is an impression of cyclists climbing in the mountains or skiers on a rapid descent. It is based on a size 8 knife with a blade made from modified Sandvik 12C27 stainless steel. The handle is made of Opinel's usual beech wood, on which the motif has been laser engraved. Naturally, the blade is secured by the Virobloc system when open and closed.
Martensitic stainless steel
The stainless steel used for Opinel blades is an optimized grade that guarantees both high corrosion resistance and high mechanical performance. The blade has excellent sharpness and high abrasion resistance (wear resistance), which allows it to withstand regular contact with hard materials such as ceramics before needing to be sharpened. Stainless steel has the advantage that, unlike carbon steel, it requires no special maintenance under normal conditions of use. Nevertheless, it can reach its limits if it comes into contact with an aggressive environment (acid, salt water, detergent, etc.) over a long period of time.
Yatagan blade
The traditional Opinel blade is called a yatagan. The shape is inspired by a Turkish sabre with a raised tip. The blade is sharpened to an exclusive, curved profile and guarantees robustness and easy sharpening.
Handle
Beech is the most commonly used wood for the production of Opinel knife handles. The beech wood comes from France, is hard, resistant and easy to work with. It has a homogeneous appearance and the light color varies from yellowish to pinkish. You can recognize the wood by the many dark, small strokes. The handle has been varnished to provide better protection against moisture and dirt.
Safety ring
The Virobloc safety ring is cut from stainless steel and consists of two parts: a fixed part and a sliding part. In addition to locking the blade in the open position (safe use), it is now also possible to lock the blade in the closed position (safe transportation).
