Opinel grafting knife #08

This knife is the perfect tool for grafting trees and shrubs, pruning shrubs, and cutting ties! It comes from the Savoyard company Opinel, whose reputation has extended beyond the borders of France for over 100 years!

• The 8 cm blade made of modified 12C27 stainless steel from Sandvik for Opinel has a remarkable cutting edge and is easy to maintain.
• The curved blade is beveled on both sides. This allows for fine, clean cuts, which are essential in grafting operations. It is also very comfortable for picking fruit and flowers.
• The hard and resistant beechwood handle is varnished to better protect it from moisture and dirt.

• The curve of the handle is harmonized with that of the blade, which folds to prevent injury during transport.
• Equipped with a Virobloc safety ferrule invented in 1955 by Opinel. Made of stainless steel, it allows the blade to be locked in the open position (during use) or closed (during transport).
• The blade, enclosed in the handle, is easily removed thanks to the Savoyard's blow. ; it consists of striking the underside of the handle at its end against a hard surface to release the blade and unfold it easily.
