Opinel No.10 Slim Ebony Mirror Blade Folding Knife
Featuring an ultra-light folding design, the Slim Line Luxury Series offers a 10-centimeter polished blade, secured by a Virobloc locking mechanism. Crafted from Sandvik 12C27 stainless steel, the blade pairs with a handle constructed from black ebony wood.
Sandvik 12C27 stainless steel, mirror finish
Featuring a Trailing Point blade profile, the knife is constructed from Sandvik 12C27 stainless steel and finished to a striking mirror polish (Mirror Finish). Outfitted with a full flat grind, in combination with the blade's slim thickness, the knife delivers superior cutting performance. The selected steel excels with high corrosion resistance and is simple to sharpen.
Virobloc lock, notch on blade
The blade remains securely open due to the Virobloc locking mechanism, which features a steel ring integrated into the handle at the rotation axis of the blade. Blade deployment is made easy with a nail mark positioned along the blade's side.
Ebony wood handle, wax impregnation
Featuring a black handle crafted from ebony wood and treated with wax, the material is shielded against swelling and the development of mold. The handle’s contoured, ergonomic shape ensures a secure and stable grip.

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.
