The Opinel N010 is a big folding knife that should not be considered a "pocket" knife. Many people have found that its size makes it a perfect everyday steak knife that can be folded and stored in the kitchen drawer. Stabilized beechwood is ultra-resistant and comfortably contoured to fit the hand. The blade is made from 12C27 Sandvik Stainless steel, which will not rust, however, try to avoid leaving your Opinel knife in damp environments for too long and dry the blade after each use. Of course, this knife has many other uses but please consider its size if you are in the market for a "pocket" knife.
Safety
This knife features the Virobloc Safety ring. The Virobloc safety ring was invented and implemented in 1955. This simple yet effective locking system greatly improved the original knife.The ability to help prevent the blade from opening when closed was added to the Virobloc in 2000.
