Opinel No. 09 Stainless Steel Wood Folding Pocket Knife

The No.09 Stainless Steel Folding Knife: A Premium Wood Edition

Robust and Versatile: The No.09 knife is a generously sized pocket knife with a 9 cm (3.51 inch) blade and 2.2 mm thickness, making it extremely versatile. The oak wood handle provides a comfortable grip, with the oak sourced from French farms, known for its durability. The handle is painted for optimal protection against moisture and dirt.

Sharp and Easy-Care Stainless Steel Blade: The No.09 knife features a modified Sandvik 12C27 stainless steel blade, renowned for its sharpness and ease of maintenance. With a chrome content of at least 0.40%, the blade is highly resistant to corrosion.

Timeless Design, Unique Know-How: Invented in 1955 by Marcel Opinel, the Virobloc safety ring equips Opinel's close-fitting pocket knives from the No.06 to No.12 models. This rotating ferrule allows for locking the blade in both the open and closed positions.

Opinel Offerings: In addition to the oak wood version, the Opinel No.09 folding knife is also available in olive wood, walnut wood, and beech wood, allowing you to choose the aesthetic that best suits your preferences.

Opinel Quality: In 1890, in a small village of Maurienne in Savoy, Joseph Opinel invented the pocket knife that carries his name today. OPINEL remains under the stewardship of its descendants, and has been producing high-quality products that have earned the brand its renowned reputation for nearly 130 years.

The No.09 Stainless Steel Folding Knife is great for larger tasks. Fold it up and stow it in a toolbox or your backpack while camping. The large profile of the No.09 knife makes it well-suited for bushcraft, large wood carving, and longer cuts.

The blade has been designed and perfected over generations to maximize cutting quality and ensure easy sharpening after years of use. Use it in the garden, at the dinner table, or on your next adventure. Keep the knife in your pocket, purse, or toolbox, and you'll love it for years to come.

Both smart and simple, the Opinel folding knife is composed of 5 elements: the blade, the wooden handle, the fixed ferrule, the rivet, and the rotating Virobloc locking ring, which was added in 1955 to sizes No.06 and above.

Caring for Your Knife: Opinel wooden-handle knives should be hand-washed and air-dried, as heat and moisture can cause the wood to swell, making the knife difficult to open. The Sandvik 12C27 Mod. stainless steel used for the blades is low-maintenance and highly resistant to rust, requiring only simple organic oils for care.
