The classic Effilé 8 combines elegance and simplicity

A more urban blade, a streamlined handle and a ferrule stamped with the new range's logo : discover the new version of the beech Effilé 8.

The polished ground blade is 8 cm long and made of stainless steel, and the handle is made of beech, the wood Opinel uses most often (coming mainly from the Jura). The Virobloc safety collar locks the blade in an open or closed position.

Handle
Beech is the most commonly used wood for the manufacture of Opinel handles. From France, our beech is hard, durable and easy to work. With a homogeneous appearance, its light color varies from yellow to pink. It is characterized by the presence of numerous small dark dashes.

Safety ring
Invented by Marcel Opinel in 1955, the Virobloc safety ring is fitted to all folding knives from the N° 06. Cut out of stainless steel, the Virobloc has two sections, one fixed and one sliding. In addition to locking the blade open (safety in use), it is now possible to lock the blade closed (safety in transport).
