Opinel Parallele Beech Handle Santoku Knife N.119

The Opinel Parallele beech handle santoku knife is Opinel’s interpretation of Japan’s favourite all-purpose kitchen knife. Use to chop, slice and mince vegetables, and to slice meat and fish.

Some cooks find the santoku more comfortable to use than the Western chefs knife. This is because the santoku has a shorter blade and is more lightweight.

The 3mm thick blade is made from a stainless steel called ‘X50CrMoV15’ that’s highly resistant to corrosion. So, your Opinel santoku knife will stay in top condition for years to come. The handle is made from durable French beechwood.

Please note, this knife is hand wash only.

The Opinel family started as blacksmiths in Savoie, France in 1800. Although famous for their folding penknives, their expertise in blade making naturally led to a future in kitchen knives. Using the same high-quality materials and over 200-years of know-how, you can now enjoy a touch of Opinel excellence every time you cook. These knives are designed in Savoie, France and manufactured in Portugal.
