PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Opinel N°12 hand saw 12 cm
Practical "closing" saw with teeth arranged in two complementary, reverse rows. Excellent for fast and precise cutting, blade length 12 cm. Handle made of French beech wood, grown in sustainably managed forests. It is heavily varnished and therefore increasingly resistant to dirt and moisture. Hand-ground blade made of carbon steel, treated with a special anti-corrosion coating, with excellent cutting properties and long-lasting sharpness thanks to added carbon. Like Opinel knives, the saw is equipped with the patented ViroBloc safety lock - not only against closing the blade, but also against its unintentional opening.

- blade length: 12 cm
- complementary opposing teeth of the blade
- ViroBloc fuse

Wood
95% of the wood used to make the handles comes from sustainably managed French forests. There is no excessive deforestation and no air pollution during long transport – all of this means less strain on nature. The main wood supplier has its forests in the French Jura region and is of course PEFC certified.
Carbon steel
Carbon steel blade with anti-corrosion coating ensuring excellent cutting quality and protection against corrosion.
Safety first
The ViroBloc safety lock reliably prevents the knife from opening and closing by itself. The simple but still unsurpassed safety ring was invented by Marcel Opinel back in 1955. Virobloc is part of all folding knives from N°06 onwards. In addition to locking the blade of the open knife, which ensures its absolutely safe use (it will not fold by itself even under great pressure), ViroBloc also locks the blade when closed, so you can carry any knife equipped with this safety lock with you without any worries.
Opinel - a design icon
The story of the now iconic Opinel brand begins in the 19th century, when merchant Victor-Amédée Opinel learned to forge nails during his travels and subsequently founded his forge in France. After his death, his son Daniel took over the craft, becoming the local farmers' "sharps maker" because the blades of his sickles and scythes were widely acclaimed as the sharpest possible. However, the real Opinel - a folding pocket knife - had to wait a while for its discovery. Daniel Opinel's eldest son, Joseph, decided to follow in his father's footsteps and, driven by artistic passion, combined handcrafting with the most modern technology at the time and created a small miracle. The year was 1890 and the Opinel folding pocket knife saw the light of day, a knife loved from day one and passed down from generation to generation. The knife, which over the years has gained hundreds of thousands of fans around the world, has become a common part of many households and somewhat of a symbol of all of France...
Nowadays, the company produces not only legendary folding outdoor knives, but also has a sophisticated kitchen program, including forged kitchen knives; you can also buy stainless steel cutlery and steak knives from the Opinel brand today.
