Product Description
A LARGE, COLLECTIBLE KNIFE WITH SERIOUS EVERYDAY USE
The Opinel No. 13 Stainless Steel Folding Knife is an impressive addition to the Opinel collection, first introduced in the 1970s, and originally conceived as a novelty item, it has since gained popularity among collectors and outdoor enthusiasts alike.
While fully extended, this folding knife measures nearly 50cm in length, considerably larger than other models in the Opinel range. Crafted with a beech wood handle for comfort and functionality, it features the Virobloc safety ring, which securely locks the blade in both open and closed positions.
The blade is constructed from Sandvik 12C27 modified stainless steel, known for its anti-corrosive properties and ease of maintenance. While primarily for display and collectible purposes, this versatile knife is well suited for outdoor activities such as slicing large fruits, meats, and cheeses and barbecuing, thanks to its heat-resistant beech wood handle, and is presented in a wooden gift box.
