SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Opinel No. 6 Carbon Steel Folding Knife is a timeless tool that blends simplicity, functionality, and reliability in a compact package. Its 3.25-inch carbon steel blade delivers exceptional cutting performance, holding a sharp edge longer than many stainless steels when properly maintained. The drop point design makes it versatile enough for slicing, carving, and everyday tasks, while the high-carbon steel construction ensures durability and a robust cutting experience that improves with age and use.

Lightweight and ergonomic, the wooden scales provide both aesthetic appeal and practical comfort, making this knife an ideal companion for outdoor adventures, camping, or simple daily chores. A key feature is the Virobloc safety ring, Opinel’s patented rotating lock that secures the blade open or closed, giving you confidence in safe handling whether the knife is in use or in your pocket.
