Opinel N°09 Stainless Steel is a classic French folding knife in a highly balanced all-purpose size. With a 9 cm Yatagan blade, comfortable beech handle and Virobloc® safety system, it combines low weight, simplicity and enough working length for a broad range of everyday and outdoor tasks.
N°09 sits between the more compact Opinel models and the larger N°10 and N°12. This makes it a practical choice for users who want a classic Opinel with a substantial working blade without moving to a larger format.
Opinel positions the N°09 Stainless Steel as a robust and classic multi-purpose model. Its 9 cm blade provides useful working length for a wide variety of tasks while retaining the low weight and straightforward construction associated with traditional Opinel knives.
A balanced working length for everyday jobs, outdoor use and food preparation.
Martensitic stainless steel provides high corrosion resistance and good mechanical performance.
Traditional wooden handle with a natural grip and varnished protection against moisture and dirt.
The blade can be secured both in the open position during use and in the closed position during transport.
Opinel uses European-origin steel developed for high corrosion resistance and good mechanical performance.
The steel is designed to provide effective cutting performance and resistance to abrasive wear under normal use.
Compared with carbon steel, the Stainless Steel version is easier to maintain in day-to-day use and does not require the same level of continuous special care under ordinary conditions.
The Yatagan shape is one of the most recognisable features of the classic Opinel design. Inspired by the traditional Turkish yataghan, it combines a subtly raised tip with Opinel's characteristic convex blade profile.
The geometry is suitable for a broad range of everyday tasks and efficient cutting.
The characteristic line gives the blade the instantly recognisable classic Opinel silhouette.
The characteristic blade geometry is designed for strength and effective subsequent sharpening.
Beech is the wood most commonly used for classic Opinel models. It is hard, durable and easy to work, while its natural grain forms part of the traditional character of the knife.
The officially specified handle length provides a useful balance between compact dimensions and a secure grip.
Opinel specifies wood from sustainably managed forest sources in the Jura and Vercors regions.
The varnish helps protect the wood against moisture and dirt during normal everyday use.
The system is used on classic Opinel folding knives from N°06 upward.
Virobloc® consists of a fixed section and a rotating stainless-steel safety ring.
During use, the ring can secure the blade in the open position. During transport, it can also lock the blade in the closed position.
N°09 is a strong choice for users looking for a versatile Opinel: more substantial than the compact models, yet easier to carry and handle every day than the larger N°10 and N°12.
Suitable for opening packaging, cutting materials and many small practical jobs.
A practical format for hiking, camping, picnics and general outdoor activities.
The 9 cm blade provides useful working length for preparing and serving food.
The history of Opinel began in 1890 in Savoie, France. The classic range continues to use the recognisable combination of wooden handle, Yatagan blade and Virobloc® safety system.
More than a century of development behind one of Europe's most recognisable folding-knife designs.
