Opinel My First Knife No.7 INOX Folding Knife - Apple

The medium-sized, ultra-light folding knife is equipped with an 8-centimeter folding blade, a sturdy wooden handle, and a reliable Virobloc lock. The My First Knife collection is specifically crafted for younger enthusiasts.

INOX stainless steel, Clip-Point profile blade

Featuring a clip-point profile, the blade is crafted from INOX stainless steel and finished with a semi-gloss polish. Manufactured with a flat-full grind approaching a zero-grind, the blade’s thickness combines to deliver superior cutting efficiency. For enhanced operational safety, the tip is rounded to prevent accidental blade penetration.

Virobloc lock

A nail nick on the blade allows for easy opening of the knife. In the open position, the blade is secured by the Virobloc lock, patented in 1955. Positioned at the level of the blade’s pivot on the handle, this steel ring must be rotated after opening to cover the blade slot, ensuring the blade remains locked in place. Using the same mechanism, the knife is safeguarded against accidental opening when folded.

Wooden handle

Constructed from resilient hornbeam wood, the knife's handle boasts an ergonomic shape that ensures a secure grip. A further benefit of the handle lies in its adaptability to customization, allowing for modifications such as drilling a hole, carving, or painting.

Main features

  • Lightweight construction
  • Blade crafted from INOX stainless steel
  • Handle made of hornbeam wood, easily customizable

Militaria.pl is a premium dealer of Opinel.


Opinel is a French knife brand whose history dates back to 1890 in Savoy. The founder, Joseph Opinel, created the first folding knife, No. 08, which quickly became a symbol of everyday use thanks to its simplicity and functionality. In 1955, the Virobloc locking system was introduced, later modernized, which is still the hallmark of the brand today. In 1985, Opinel was recognized by the Victoria and Albert Museum as one of the 100 best-designed objects in the world, and the brand's knives also found their way into the MoMA collection in New York. Production takes place in Chambery, with an emphasis on quality and ecology - the wood comes from French forests and the waste is used to heat the factory. Among the famous users was Pablo Picasso, who used Opinel for carving, and the knives themselves have become a symbol of simplicity, durability, and the French lifestyle.

    I recommend every father to buy this type of pocketknife as a first knife for his son. I have two sons, and it's time to teach them how to use this important tool. This model is perfect for that. I only had to blunt it on a stone because it is very sharp from the factory. Great price, very good quality, and tradition. I recommend it.

    Great, like all the Opinels I own. The number 7 is a permanent fixture in my back pocket :) I always chose the stainless version, so I have no experience with the carbon steel ones. I can wholeheartedly recommend it ;)
