## Description

Blade Length 3.5 Inches Steel Stainless Overall Length 6.5 Inches Weight 2 oz Description The No.07 My First Opinel Folding Knife features a round-ended blade for added safety. The knife also utilizes our patented Virobloc locking ring which keeps the blade locked shut during transport and securely opened while in use. It comes in a variety of colors and is the perfect scout knife for children looking to learn useful knife skills like carving, whittling, preparing food and more! Note that this is a sharp knife, as a result young users should be supervised at all time. Care Hand wash only. Do not immerse your knife in water, as this could warp the wooden handle. Dry the blade before closing. Keep your blade sharp and your handle shiny with our maintenance kit. My First Opinel + Sheath The My First Opinel with Sheath comes with a responsibly sourced sheet which is made from repurposed scrap leather and post-consumer recycled plastic bottles. My First Opinel with Sheath Virobloc Safety Ring Our patented locking mechanism developed in 1955 that keeps the blade securely opened, or closed. To lock your knife, simply twist the locking ring clockwise into the closed position during transport, turn the locking ring counterclockwise to prevent the blade from folding during use. Stainless Steel Blade The stainless steel blade is low-maintenance and comes from the factory very sharp. For greater safety, the tip of the blade is rounded,but we still suggest using the knife under close supervision from a parent or guardian. Great for Food Prep My First Opinel isn't just for kids. They make great folding brunch knives, perfect for spreading!

Review: A Very Handy knife that is Blunt & built for kids in mind! - One Very good Quality knife with full rust resistance that holds and retains it's edge lightweight in your pocket well designed and this knife has been in existence since the late 18th century. I've researched this knife company from France and it has a very long history of making quality knives and great quality made with care and you can be sure that it's money well spent. I bought this because it's blunt there's no Point on the blade but very sharp and it's identical to a common butter knife that you'll find in your utensil shelf and this knife has a locking mechanism on it so you can be sure that'll keep on opened and won't close on you while you're using it. One very well made knife is all I can say about this knife and I never thought that France has some quality knives they're selling under the radar!
Review: Safe for first timers - These knives are great no got 15 of these for the scouts in my cubs out den. The rounded tip is nice for first time knife users to minimize injuries. Some of the kids initially had trouble with the locking mechanism but I think it’s better for younger kids than other mechanisms

## Features

- HANDS ON WITH SAFETY IN MIND: An excellent Montessori based learning addition for your next adventure, My First Opinel features a locking blade with rounded safety tip, use on a family trip to learn basic knife skills, whittling or chopping food
- COLORFUL AND BRIGHT: Bright tones of varnished hornbeam wood with vibrant colorways for boys and girls, sustainably harvested in France, or natural brown beechwood for a less vibrant vibe
- JUST THE RIGHT SIZE: the No.07 is slightly smaller than the infamous No.08, but a bit bigger than the handy No.06. Often heralded as the "perfect picnic knife", the No.07 slices through cheese and fruits with ease
- INOX BLADE: We use Sandvik 12C27 modified stainless steel. It is anti-corrosive thanks to the addition of chrome and requires no special maintenance. Carbon content of at least 0.40% provides an excellent cutting edge and is easily sharpened
- AN ICON OF FRENCH CULTURE: Produced in the heart of the French Alps since 1890, Opinel knives draw simplicity and durability from their mountain roots. Opinel kitchen knives have been adopted worldwide and recognized as a design icon

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Very Handy knife that is Blunt & built for kids in mind!
*by J***0 on February 23, 2025*

One Very good Quality knife with full rust resistance that holds and retains it's edge lightweight in your pocket well designed and this knife has been in existence since the late 18th century. I've researched this knife company from France and it has a very long history of making quality knives and great quality made with care and you can be sure that it's money well spent. I bought this because it's blunt there's no Point on the blade but very sharp and it's identical to a common butter knife that you'll find in your utensil shelf and this knife has a locking mechanism on it so you can be sure that'll keep on opened and won't close on you while you're using it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Safe for first timers
*by B***E on October 10, 2025*

These knives are great no got 15 of these for the scouts in my cubs out den. The rounded tip is nice for first time knife users to minimize injuries. Some of the kids initially had trouble with the locking mechanism but I think it’s better for younger kids than other mechanisms

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice first knife
*by T***T on August 12, 2025*

The one I received would be difficult to work for smaller children, the lock and hinge are both tight right out of the box. The blade is thin, and is a reasonable length. It came sharp, and looks easy enough to keep that way. I think it will make an excellent knife while we're out mushroom hunting, and looks well built. We should get a lot of use out of it. I bought the blue one for my youngest, after examining it for a minute or two my oldest requested one in orange.
