Opinel No. 12: our largest Opinel pocket knife

The Opinel No. 12 pocket knife is a large knife with a 12-cm blade. It's the biggest Opinel knife in our range. Incidentally, it's also one of the biggest pocket knives in our range, full stop. When opened, this knife measures 28 cm. When closed, only 16 cm. Even for those with large hands, the Opinel 12 is a hefty pocket knife. You'll need some pretty large pockets to carry it. The clippoint blade shape and convex grind stand out. It ensures the blade is nice and thin, allowing for easy slicing.

Features of the Opinel No. 12

The Opinel 12 is available in stainless steel (Inox) or carbon steel (Carbone). Carbon steel is a classic choice. It's easy to sharpen to a razor-sharp edge, but it's not corrosion resistant. Carbon steel is able to form a nice, protective patina. Do you prefer a low-maintenance option? Choose the Inox version. It's up to you!

Opinel 12 Effile Slim

In addition to the regular No. 12 pocket knife, there are also Slim versions. These can be seen as filleting pocket knives. The No. 12 Slim has a long and thin blade that is slightly flexible, making it ideal as a fishing knife. Use this pocket knife to clean the fish you caught yourself! These knives are also commonly used as steak knives, especially the versions with a handle of luxurious padouk, ebony or olive wood.
