There is no more room for improvement. Because with the No.13 OPINEL has reached the end of the line as far as sizes are concerned.
It can be quickly locked in place by turning a safety ring, the so-called "Virobloc system". The French call the pike-tipped blade "Yatagan." This was the name of a Seljuk commander in the Ottoman Empire, after whom a city and this very form of sword was named.
The handle is made of dried, long seasoned beech wood from French farms. A special varnish protects it from moisture.
OPINEL manufactures this model from Numero 2 to Numero 13. Numero 1 as well as the Dppeleins No. 11 have left in the 30's, neither we nor the Sécurité Extérieure got hold of them until now. Nevertheless, since the 70s, there is the giant model 13 with a remarkable total length of 50 cm. If necessary, such a pocket knife can also be used to portion a watermelon in style.
