Opinel No.6 Folding Peeler - Outdoor Camp and Picnic Tool

Opinel's folding knives have long been recognized as icons of everyday carry (EDC) and utility. Among their diverse offerings, the No.06 Stainless Steel Folding Peeler stands out as a versatile and practical addition to any outdoor kit or home kitchen.

Designed with ambidextrous ease of use in mind, this ingenious peeler allows for quick and efficient removal of skins from fruits and vegetables, whether you're right or left-handed. The stainless steel blade, crafted from Sandvik® 12C27 Modified steel, is renowned for its anti-corrosive properties and ability to maintain a sharp cutting edge with minimal maintenance.

A key feature of Opinel's folding knives is the patented Virobloc locking mechanism, which secures the blade both in the open and closed positions, ensuring safe transport and use. The simplicity of the knife's design, combined with its lightweight, sustainable wooden handle, makes it an ideal everyday carry item.

The No.08 size is the most widely distributed in Opinel's ever-growing line of folding knives, earning it a reputation as a reliable and versatile everyday carry staple. With a 3.25-inch blade and an overall open length of 7.59 inches, this knife weighs in at just 45 grams, making it a practical and efficient tool.

Proper care is essential to maintain the quality and longevity of Opinel's wooden-handled knives. The company recommends hand-washing and air-drying, as the Sandvik stainless steel used in the blades is low-maintenance and highly resistant to rust.

The story of Opinel dates back to 1890, when Joseph Opinel designed his first pocket knife in the French Alps. Since then, generations of artists, explorers, and farmers have carried the instantly recognizable and eminently useful Opinel knife in their pockets. Today, the Opinel family continues to manufacture their knives in the Savoie region of France, with a team of 150 employees producing over 5 million knives each year.

Opinel's commitment to quality, simplicity, and craftsmanship has earned them a loyal following worldwide. Whether you're a collector, outdoor enthusiast, or simply someone in need of a reliable everyday tool, the Opinel folding knife line offers a diverse range of options to suit your needs, from the versatile No.06 Stainless Steel Folding Peeler to the classic No.08 and beyond.
