Opinel Effilé Fillet Knife Padouk No. 15, 15cm

Opinel Effilé Padouk No. 15 Fillet Knife, 15cm

The Opinel Effilé No. 15 Padouk is a large and elegant fillet knife, ideal for activities such as filleting fish or slicing thin and delicate pieces, thanks to its narrow blade. This refined knife can be used anywhere and adds a touch of elegance to the table. Made in France, it is part of the Opinel Effilé series, previously known as Slim Line, a collection of knives available in various sizes with wooden handles.

The knife is equipped with a Virobloc locking system, also known as a locking ring, which locks the blade with a rotating ring and reduces the risk of accidental cuts. The blade is made from Sandvik 12C27 steel, a very corrosion-resistant steel thanks to the addition of chromium, and especially durable due to its high carbon content. The blade stays sharp for a long time and has a polished finish for a shiny appearance.

The handle is made from padouk, a reddish wood from Central and West Africa, also known as African coral wood, used for musical instruments and furniture. With an attractive red hue, padouk offers a pleasant aesthetic look as well as a durable structure resistant to daily wear. However, prolonged exposure to sunlight can discolor the wood, so it is recommended to keep the knife away from sunlight after use. The slim handle is comfortable in the hand, adding to its elegance.
