Opinel No 7 Round Ended Stainless Safety Red – OP001698
Sandvik stainless steel
We use Sandvik 12C27 modified stainless steel. It is anti-corrosive thanks to the addition of chrome and requires no special maintenance. Its carbon content of at least 0.40% gives excellent cutting edge.
Round-tipped blade
The tip of the blade is rounded for safety. This is also an ideal blade for spreading.
Handle
Coming from French forests, this white wood with few veins is ideal for applying color. The handle is varnished to be protected against moisture and dirt.
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).

At the heart of this knife lies Sandvik 12C27 modified stainless steel—the gold standard for blade makers who demand razor-sharp edges and corrosion resistance without the hassle of special upkeep. Thanks to its precise carbon content (0.40% minimum) and added chromium, the blade stays sharp longer and resists rust, giving you reliable cutting power day in and day out.
Safety and versatility go hand in hand with our round-tipped blade design. The gentle curve of the tip ensures peace of mind in every use—ideal for spreading condiments, creams, or pastes—and keeps accidental punctures at bay. When you’re done, the blade folds neatly into its handle, locking securely in both open and closed positions.
The handle itself is a study in elegance and practicality. Sourced from sustainably managed French forests, the pale white wood features minimal grain for a clean, contemporary look. A durable varnish shields it from moisture and stains, while the smooth, ergonomic shape fits comfortably in your hand, making prolonged use a breeze.
Brighten up your toolkit with a splash of color—choose from bold Blue, refreshing Green, playful Pink, or classic Red. No matter where life takes you, this knife promises reliable performance, unbeatable safety, and eye-catching style.
