Opinel N°12 Stainless Steel is one of the larger classic folding knives in the traditional range of the French brand. With a 12 cm Yatagan blade, substantial 16 cm beech handle and Virobloc® locking system, it is designed for users who prefer a larger and more capable working size.
Opinel positions the N°12 as a robust model for more demanding practical tasks. Its size makes it suitable for outdoor work, camping, agricultural use, cutting denser materials and serving larger foods such as cheese and cured meats.
N°12 keeps the iconic simplicity of the Opinel design while offering significantly more working length than the N°10 and smaller models. It is a strong choice for users looking for a large folding knife without moving to a heavy or mechanically complex construction.
Greater working length for food preparation, cutting materials and tasks where a compact blade is not enough.
Martensitic stainless steel combines good corrosion resistance, mechanical strength and easy maintenance.
The longer handle provides a stable grip and additional control when working with the larger blade.
The rotating safety ring secures the blade in both the open and closed positions.
Opinel uses European-origin steel selected for corrosion resistance, mechanical strength and useful edge retention.
The stainless steel used on the N°12 is designed for practical everyday use and good wear resistance. It provides a useful balance of sharpness, mechanical strength and easy maintenance.
Unlike carbon-steel blades, this stainless version does not require the same level of continuous protective maintenance under normal conditions.
The blade uses Opinel's traditional Yatagan form, inspired by the yataghan and recognised by its subtly raised tip. The manufacturer uses its characteristic convex profile, designed to combine blade strength with effective sharpening.
Suitable for a wide range of working tasks and for cutting denser materials.
The subtly raised tip is a characteristic element of the traditional Opinel Yatagan design.
The blade geometry is designed to balance strength with effective sharpening.
Beech is the traditional material used for classic Opinel handles. The manufacturer uses PEFC-certified wood from sustainably managed forests in the Jura and Vercors regions of France.
The longer handle provides more gripping area and good control when using the large 12 cm blade.
The wood is hard, durable and well suited to the traditional straightforward Opinel construction.
The varnish helps protect the natural wood against moisture and dirt during normal use.
One of the most recognisable functional features of the classic Opinel folding-knife design.
Virobloc® uses a fixed section and a rotating stainless-steel safety ring.
The ring can secure the blade in the open position during use or lock it in the folded position during transport and storage.
Opinel describes the N°12 as a robust knife suitable for demanding jobs and agricultural or outdoor use. The large blade also makes it practical for cutting and serving larger food products.
The larger size is well suited to more substantial practical jobs during camping and outdoor work.
The 12 cm blade provides useful working length for serving larger cheeses, ham and other foods.
Suitable for tasks where smaller Opinel sizes may provide insufficient working length.
Opinel began its history in 1890 in Savoie, France. The classic folding knives continue to be manufactured in France and retain the recognisable combination of beech handle, Yatagan blade and Virobloc® safety ring.
More than a century of development behind one of Europe's most recognisable folding-knife designs.
