Virobloc loc

The knife has a Virobloc lock, also called a ring lock. With a Virobloc, the hinges of the blade are solidly blocked by the ring. This type of locking system can be operated with two hands, which means that you will be less likely to end up too close to the edge. The ring is often used to lock the knife when closed. And by using oil you also make sure that the ring moves easily.

Type of steel

The blade is made from Sandvik 12C27 steel. The steel is extremely durable thanks to the addition of chrome. A small amount of carbon has been added to the steel as well. As such the knives are razor-sharp.

Handle Material

The handle is made from walnut wood. A stunning type of brown wood with beautiful dark brown lines. The wood looks stylish and chic.

Accessories and maintenance

To benefit from this Opinel-pocket knife longer maintenance is essential. A drop of Ballistol oil prevents the wood from drying out and it ensures that it will not lose its colour. Do not forget to oil the hinges as well. This keeps the ring running smoothly. With Opinel's sharpening stones, you can make the blade razor-sharp again. Moreover, always keep it in a suitable sheath to prevent damage to the metal. In short: check out our combideals and complete your purchase!
