Opinel Mushroom Knife

This is an ideal tool for gathering and tidying wild mushrooms before taking them to your dining table. The handle comes with a boar - hair bristle brush, and the blade has a toothed back. The 8 - cm blade is crafted from a stainless - steel blend. With the addition of chrome, it's corrosion - resistant and needs no special upkeep. A carbon content of at least 0.40% gives it an outstanding cutting edge. The handle is made of French oak, a tough wood that resists insects and fungi due to its high tannin content. It has a yellow - brown look with regular veining. All folding knives from the N° 06 are fitted with the Virobloc safety ring. Cut from stainless steel, the Virobloc has a fixed part and a sliding part. Besides locking the blade open for safe use, you can also lock it closed for safe transport.

Using this Opinel mushroom knife is easy. When you're out in the wild to pick mushrooms, you can use the blade to gently cut the mushrooms from the ground. The toothed back of the blade can also be handy for some tasks. After picking, use the boar bristle brush on the handle to clean the dirt off the mushrooms. For safety, always make sure the Virobloc safety ring is locked when using the knife. When you're done, lock the blade closed with the ring to avoid any accidental cuts during transport. Maintenance is a breeze. Since the blade is corrosion - resistant, you just need to wipe it with a dry cloth after each use. Store the knife in a dry place to keep the French oak handle in good condition.
