An exceptional blade.

The Effilé 12 is renowned for its excellent cutting quality. The 12cm polished ground blade is flexible, fine and sharp, so you can cut with precision. The beech handle lends this elegant knife simplicity. Although it's very handy in the kitchen, this is a closing knife that can be carried anywhere thanks to the Virobloc safety ferrule, stamped with the new Effilés logo, locking the blade in the open and closed positions.

Features
• Martensitic stainless steel: Hardness 55-57 HRC. European origin. The stainless steel used in Opinel blades is a grade optimized to guarantee both high corrosion resistance and high mechanical performance. The blade offers excellent sharpness and high resistance to abrasion(Wear)which allows it to withstand regular contact with hard materials, such as ceramics, before requiring re-sharpening. Stainless steel has the advantage of requiring no special maintenance under ordinary conditions of use, unlike carbon steel. Nevertheless, it can meet its limits when it is put in prolonged contact with an aggressive environment(Acid, salt water, detergent...)
• Handle: Beech is the most common wood used in Opinel handles. PEFC-certified, it comes from eco-managed farms in the Jura and Vercors regions. It is hard, resistant and easy to work. It is homogeneous in appearance, with a light color ranging from yellow to pink. It can be recognized by the presence of numerous small dark lines. The handle is varnished to protect it from moisture and dirt
• Safety ring: Invented by Marcel Opinel in 1955, the Virobloc safety ring is fitted to all folding knives from the N°06. Cut out of stainless steel, the Virobloc has two sections, one fixed and one sliding. In addition to locking the blade open(Safety in use), it is now possible to lock the blade closed(Safety in transport)
