Stainless steel
The choice of steel determines the durability and quality of the blade, and therefore due attention is paid to it, as it ultimately affects the main useful properties of the entire product. High-quality Swedish steel 12C27 Sandvik Mod was chosen for the knives of the Opinel Intempora collection. This steel is highly resistant to corrosion and easy to maintain thanks to the addition of chromium (14.5%) and manganese (0.60%). The addition of carbon in the steel (0.52%) ensures an excellent edge that holds its shape even when in contact with harder material.

Intempora Collection
The shape and color of the Intempora kitchen knife collection are inspired by the trendy industrial style, similar to the Opinel Appetit steak knife range. With the Intenpora collection, not only modern design and the best possible materials come to your kitchen, but also French culinary excellence and the art of enjoying life.
The ergonomically shaped handle of the knives in this series is made of highly durable polymer – POM, which guarantees that it is resistant to chemical detergents, withstands high temperatures and of course its shape and color withstand the effects of water, no matter how hot or cold. The blade of the Intempora kitchen knives is made of a special mixture of stainless steel 12C27 (Sandvik Mod), which protects it from corrosion and ensures top sharpness. The steel edge runs the entire length of the knife, ensuring proper balance and at the same time creating an interesting design element.

Opinel - a design icon
The story of the now iconic Opinel brand begins in the 19th century, when merchant Victor-Amédée Opinel learned to forge nails during his travels and subsequently founded his forge in France. After his death, his son Daniel took over the craft, becoming the local farmers' "sharps maker" because the blades of his sickles and scythes were widely acclaimed as the sharpest possible. However, the real Opinel - a folding pocket knife - had to wait a while for its discovery. Daniel Opinel's eldest son, Joseph, decided to follow in his father's footsteps and, driven by artistic passion, combined handcrafting with the most modern technology at the time and created a small miracle. The year was 1890 and the Opinel folding pocket knife saw the light of day, a knife loved from day one and passed down from generation to generation. The knife, which over the years has gained hundreds of thousands of fans around the world, has become a common part of many households and somewhat of a symbol of all of France...
Nowadays, the company produces not only legendary folding outdoor knives, but also has a sophisticated kitchen program, including forged kitchen knives; you can also buy stainless steel cutlery and steak knives from the Opinel brand today.
