Opinel Slim Line 10 Ebony Pocket Knife

Ebony is a rare and luxurious wood originating from the forests of Africa. Traditionally used in marquetry, ebony is renowned for its beautiful density and deep black color. To achieve a velvet touch, a specific wax is manually applied to each ebony handle.

The mirror blade of this knife is crafted from Sandvik 12C27 modified stainless steel, which has been double-polished to create a mirror effect. All slim knives feature a narrow, flexible blade, with the smaller sizes being well-suited for cutting fruits and vegetables, while the larger ones are ideal for filleting fish.

This knife is equipped with the Virobloc safety ring, an innovation introduced by Marcel Opinel in 1955. The Virobloc safety ring, fitted on all folding knives from size No6 to No12, is made of stainless steel and has two sections: one fixed and one sliding. In addition to locking the blade open for safety during use, the Virobloc now also allows the blade to be locked in the closed position, providing safety during transport.

The combination of the rare and luxurious ebony handle, the mirror-like stainless steel blade, and the innovative Virobloc safety feature make this knife a unique and versatile tool. Whether you're preparing delicate fruits and vegetables or filleting a fresh catch, this knife's precision and attention to detail ensure a seamless and enjoyable experience in the kitchen or on the go.
