A knife with a handle featuring a refined wood grain
Also known as Awoura or Zebrali, Béli is a type of wood found
in the forests of Gabon.
Its grain has a very pronounced dark to golden brown colour,
giving it an appearance that differs from any other wood.
The poli glace finish blade elevates the status of this knife
to a collector's item.
With only 3,500 manufactured, this knife is supplied in a blue
gift box with a black suedette pouch.
This knife can be personalised.

Safety ring
Invented by Marcel Opinel in 1955, the Virobloc safety ring is
fitted to all folding knives from the N° 06. Cut out of stainless steel,
the Virobloc has two sections, one fixed and one sliding.
In addition to locking the blade open (safety in use), it is now
possible to lock the blade closed (safety in transport).
