Materials & Build
The anti-corrosive chrome-alloyed stainless steel blade takes a sharp edge and sharpens easily with no special maintenance. Sustainably harvested wood handle and minimal packaging reflect Opinel's sustainability commitment.
Functions & Compatibility
The Virobloc lock keeps the blade locked shut in transport and securely open in use. Ideal for whittling, carving, food prep, slicing cheese and fruit – the "perfect picnic knife." Best suited to children learning basic knife skills with adult supervision at all times.

- Montessori and homeschool hands-on learning

How It Compares
The No.07 sits between the compact No.06 and the classic No.08, making it the right-sized first knife for small hands. Unlike blunt toy knives, it is a real, sharp cutting tool with a rounded tip for added safety. Alternatives include plastic safety knives (less capable) or full-size folders (not child-appropriate).
