More info about the steel: Hardness 55-57 HRC. Origin from Europe.
The stainless steel of OPINEL blades is an optimized grade that guarantees both high corrosion resistance and high mechanical performance.
The blade has excellent sharpness and high abrasion resistance (wear resistance), which allows it to withstand regular contact with hard materials such as ceramics before needing to be sharpened. Stainless steel has the advantage that, unlike carbon steel, it requires no special maintenance under normal conditions of use. Nevertheless, it can reach its limits if it comes into contact with an aggressive environment (acid, salt water, detergent, etc.) over a long period of time.
