Opinel DIY N°09 multifunction knife 8 cm, grey

The multifunctional DIY outdoor knife with reinforced blade conceals a wire stripper (cables up to 8 mm diameter), cutswire cutter (cable diameter up to 5 mm), flat screwdriver (4 mm screws) and Phillips screwdriver PH2 (3.5 - 5 mm screws). The bits can be fixed by means of a socket at the upper end of the handle, fitted with a magnet. The latest creation of the traditional knife maker Opinel, in which it skilfully combines traditional design and modern technology. The name of this knife is based on the abbreviation of the English Do It Yourself - our "do it yourself". This knife is designed not only for all DIYers, but also for professional craftsmen, it is simply a handy helper that is always good to have on hand.

- Blade length: 8 cm
- Blade material: stainless steel
- Handle made of fibreglass-reinforced polyamide
- Wire stripper, wire cutter, flat and Phillips screwdriver
- ViroBloc lock - allows the knife to be locked open or closed

Handle
Fiberglass-reinforced polyamide that resists impact and moisture, with two integrated bits: Flat screwdriver (4 mm screws) and Phillips screwdriver (3.5 to 5 mm screws), magnetized bit holder.

Safety first
The ViroBloc safety lock reliably prevents the knife from opening and closing by itself. The simple but still unsurpassed safety ring was invented by Marcel Opinel in 1955. The Virobloc is included in all knife closures from N°06 onwards. In addition to locking the blade of an open knife, which ensures its absolute safety (it does not fold up spontaneously) even under great pressure), the ViroBloc also locks the blade closed, so that you can carry any knife equipped with this lock directly on your person without any worries.

Stainless steel
The choice of steel is very important as it is one of the defining materials of the knife itself. It determines the durability and quality of the blade itself. For these Opinel knives, martensitic stainless steel of European origin with a hardness of 55-57 HRC has been chosen. The blade of these knives offers excellent sharpness and high abrasion (wear) resistance, allowing it to withstand regular contact with hard materials such as ceramics without the need for re-sharpening. Unlike carbon steel, stainless steel has the advantage of requiring no special maintenance under normal conditions of use. Nevertheless, it can run into its limits, especially in prolonged contact with aggressive environments (acid, salt water, aggressive detergent).

Opinel - a design icon
The story of the now iconic Opinel brand begins in the 19th century, when the merchant Victor-Amédée Opinel learned to forge nails during his travels and subsequently set up his forge in France. After his death, his son Daniel took over the craft and became the "maker of sharp objects" for the local farmers, as the blades of his sickles and scythes were renowned far and wide as the sharpest possible. But the real Opinel - the closing pocket knife - would have to wait a little longer to be discovered. Daniel Opinel's eldest son, Joseph, decided to follow in his father's footsteps and, driven by an artistic passion...he combined hand craftsmanship with the most advanced technology of the day to create a small miracle. The year was 1890 and the Opinel pocket knife saw the light of day, a knife loved from day one and handed down from generation to generation. The knife, which over the following years won hundreds of thousands of fans around the world, became a staple in many households and a bit of a symbol of France...
Nowadays, the company not only produces legendary outdoor knives, but also has a sophisticated kitchen program, including forged kitchen knives; you can also buy stainless steel cutlery and steak knives from Opinel today.
